Is it possible to replace the water pump bearing and impeller in a 20B housing with 13B water pump parts? Thereby giving you a new pump in an old housing? I ask because I bought a 13B pump for my 20B after being told it would fit. Which as far as I can tell it will BUT the tower part of the housing of a 13B is going to sit almost too close to the e shaft pulley. If it is possible will any bearing puller work for removing the old WP bearing or will I need a Mazda tool?

Hey guys,
Can't help with your specific question - but I did easily put a S4 13BT water pump on a D Series 20B. Didn't want to, had to. No pully room as I was keeping a/c and p/s. And I kinda had the 13BT engine just sitting there. Haven't fired up the car yet, so no realy idea if the flow rate will be enough. Will happily go electric if I need to - will be good for avoiding heat soak after turning off if nothing else.
Cheers guys!
