Somethings not quite right, water pump ?, water pump pulley? or crank pulley ?
Anyone know if there is a different pump pulley before I get a spacer machined up ?
I've not tried the alternator yet as it will interesting to see which one that lines up with.

Itll be the new crank sensor toothed wheel ofsetting it out too much.
The toothed wheel is mounted on the back of the pulley so it doesn't affect the position of the water / pump alternator belt. I wonder if it's due to the block / crank being from a Chimp but the pulley being a SD1 ??

I've now dropped the alternator on and it lines up perfectly with the water pump so the problem is the crank pulley confused

Anyone know if another version of the v8 uses a shorter CRANK pulley? I notice rimmers offer all sorts of variations !

Looks like the Alternator I took off was also the wrong one, the new one lines up with the crank pulley so I just need a 5mm spacer for the water pump and 3 longer screws - another job for the machine shop at work !
