Chris,
Thanks for the input. As it turns out you are right it was improperly
rebuilt. The impeller was not pressed on sufficiently by a few hundredths.
After repressing the problem was rectified.
Thanks again!
Leonard

Hello Billy Bob,
I have a question that most likely you can answer. Did the 1964 Olds 394 V8
have a water pump spacer plate behind the water pump? Whenever I tighten
the
bolts on all of the replacement pumps I have tried the pump binds up. If so
where could I acquire one? This is for a 64 Dynamic 88.
Thank you,
Leonard
====================
Sounds wrong to me
Incorrectly rebuilt, or hit by something, or coming apart, perhaps.
I am no 394 EXPERT, I defer to others on that score, but the few I have
dismantled, 1961 mostly, had no spacer plate behind WP.
Willis?
WANTED:
Glass bowl fuel filter with top mounting bolt, as seen here:
