I ran into a similar problem a while back with my 72. The P.O had installed a later model 350 w/ LWP and related drive. I had (or thought I had) all of the parts to swap it back to SWP. I mounted up the SWP that I have had on the shelf for yrs, and the pulley wouldn't line up. (It had 4 holes.) I went to the local Vauto ZOne, told them I needed a water pump for a 72 C10 w/ a 350. He brought it out, I opened the box, and there it was... a pump with an 8 bolt hub. Problem solved! I guess I was lucky!
