water pump spacer shims
These came with my rebuild kit. Can anyone tell me where they go?

They go over the water pump studs that that gasket doesn't cover. They are used so that when tightening down the wp, it doesn't crack it.

I cracked the bolt holes for the thermostat on the water pump housings. Luckily, I scored a water pump housing.
But out of curiosity , how could I have repaired the cracked housing's bolt holes?????? !!!! |

I don't weld cast personally, but Ive had a few cast things welded by professionals. EDIT: did you crack the iron endplate or the W/P housing? |
I use to weld over the summers to pay for college. My welding got better just in time to go back to school. I had great hand writing thanks to welding. Now it sucks.
