water pump question...

I want to get an aluminum water pump for my 1990 Iroc but dont know what to get. Short or Long style? Clockwise or counterclockwise rotation?

If it's on a Corvette, you'd probably need a short one. If it's on almost anything else, you'd probably need a long one.

Direction depends on your drive belt setup. Are you using the stock poly-V belt ("serpentine") setup?
