Big block Ford water pump core, suitable for rebuilding. This version has a casting number of C8AE-8505-H. Found on many Ford 390, 427, and 428CJ engines from 1968. These have casting dates, we list the dates when we have them in stock. Plan on sending it to a vendor that specializes in water pump rebuilding.
