Did the 1968 Chevy C10 with 396 get the long water pump or short water pump?

I am wanting to order a water pump for my 1968 Chevy C10 shortbed. It is a original 396 bigblock and 400 turbo. Did it originally come with a short water pump or a long water pump?

Short. All 67-72 whether big or small block came from factory with short water pump.

If you order the stock water pump for your 68, it will be the short version, no questions asked...

Yes, it should be if you shop specifically by model year.

Will a long water pump fit?

Love to get a serpentine setup like my 99 454 has.

a long water pump will fit but your pullies will not line up.
