Thank you for the reply.
He has the pump with the 2.31" hub height mounted now. When he ordered the pulley, he got one that, as you stated, ran in very close to the pump. The problem we're having is the pulley is too close to the block to line up with the belt's travel.
When looking for a pump, they have 2.31" hub height as well as a 3.72" hub height. We have no idea which is needed in combination with what pulley.
