Re: 356 Water Pump Hub Height

You might confirm with Stuart at Kanter as I believe he is the one I spoke with when wondering how they could do a repro pump for a limited volume 356. My 47 356 pump looks similar to yours on the left. The shaft is perfectly flush with the front of the hub and there is just under 1/2" of space between the pump body and rear of hub. It arrived from Kanter perfectly set up and was a bolt on.

I am wondering if the shaft length might be another difference that was a compromise to get one assy. The new shaft looks a bit shorter in that photo and it would appear that to get the 1/2" behind the hub it might be recessed into the hub a slight bit in the front.
