Standard or Reverse Flow

I have a 92 RS with the 305, AC and PS with a single serpentine belt.

The water pump is leaking and I was going to pick one up on the way home today, but have come across the fact that there are standard and reverse flow water pumps. All I have found so far is that you have to look at the water pump and see which way the belt goes around the pulley. But since I don't have the car with me, does anyone know if there which one I might have?

Thanks!

Re: Standard or Reverse Flow

i would guess its reverse flow. if your car is stock, just order the correct pump.

Yeah, the serpentine models use the reverse rotation pumps
