Hi all

 

About 10 years ago I bought a NOS Holden water-pump (cast iron impeller). It came in an original Holden box with P/N 92008365 printed on the outside. According to the box, it suited among other vehicles, LJ 6 cylinder cars. I test fitted it and it came up short (no pun intended). It was about 2mm short of the hole in the fan. Further research reveals that 92008365 is the correct part number but it should have 10mm of the shaft forward of the pulley/fan mounting flange (this one has 7.5mm). It appears to have been put in the wrong packaging. Being too short, I don't feel inclined to use it but am nonetheless interested in what was its intended application. I should say it mounts up correctly in terms of pulley size and hole pattern.

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers

Don't use it. The shaft is the spigot for the fan. The bolts alone wont hold it at 6500rpm

Just press it apart, get a longer shaft made, put it back together & you're done. Technically it's the spring washers that will hold the fan on, the shaft pretty much just becomes a locating dowel. Not that it's not important. A good machine shop could make you 1 Baz.

 Technically it's the spring washers that will hold the fan on,

That is bad info on something that rotates. Flywheels are spigoted as are clutches (dowel bolts).

Hi Bazza

 

I have the same water pump on my LC GTR.  I found the same thing I had an LJ fan I thought I could use but the nose is too short.  You have to use a LC GTR type fan with this water pump.  The GTR fan has a flat face where it bolts up, so  the short snout pokes through perfectly.  I'm guessing this fan blade wasn't just fitted to the GTR though.
