Has anyone taped the water pump for A&N fittings?

I think, once you pull out the stock nipples, you can tap one for 3/8" NPT and the other for 1/2" NPT and then use whatever size of AN fitting you want.

You're Correctomundo, Mike, I yanked the stock nipples and tapped for a 3/8" and 1/2" NPT plugs.

I ended up having to buy an Edelbrock water pump, and it came threaded (female) in the same sizes.

For clearance reasons, I welded up the side ports and welded on -8 fittings to the top of the pump but still down by the thermostat. I was able to tuck the coolant lines by the injectors that way

 

For the bigger -16 fitting, I just used a big pile wrench while on the engine stand and twisted it up and out for a buddy of mine
