Jack's Comments:

This FE rear water pump backing plate cover is the best reproduction available.  Comes with gasket.
If you need a the correct bolts for this FE backing plate we stock them.

Concours Notes:
1) There is an extra sealing bead pressed into the plate that really helps to seal the gasket.  These extra depressions in the metal are not seen when installed on the engine.

2) The plate metal a tiny bit thinner than originals.  Again, not noticeable when installed.

INSTALL TIP: Make sure you put some thread sealer on the bolt threads before installing.
