Bud, I can't answer any of your dimensional questions as I started using a non-bypass water pump 20 years ago, but if you have a 351-M or a 400 block around, the thermo ring was cast in place on those blocks, so for sure they're where Ford wanted them. And I believe those blocks used the same thermostat as the 351-Cs. Just a suggestion- J Deryke
