This CVF Racing 1-groove water pump pulley is billet aluminum with a Stealth Black finish, made for Ford FE V-belt engines such as the 390, 427 and 428. CVF sizes it at 6.2 in. as an underdrive pulley, which slows the water pump relative to the crank to free up power.
It mounts with a 4-bolt pattern on a 1.75 in. bolt circle and suits FE engines with a 3-bolt crank pulley, no cast V-groove in the damper, and 2 3/8 in. from damper face to water pump flange face.
