    Well its been a year and a half since my car has ran and now the motor is ready to fire but I have a question first. What way does the waterpump turn on a 91 gt, I have deleted the smog, power steering, and the ac and I am having to come up with a way to run the belt with a single belt novi 1000 supercharger. Does the waterpump turn clockwise or counterclockwise if you are looking at the waterpump from the front of the car. Man I feel dumb as dirt asking that question.thanks

    It's reverse direction. so it runs opposite the crank. You can't just run a belt from the crank to the waterpump or you'll be turning it the wrong way. You need atleast 4 pullies to have it turning the correct way, or use an electric pump or electric drive.
