how much space will i save with a short water pump

[patgizz]

simple question that i dont know the answer to.

i need to know the height of the long and short water pumps from where they mount to the block to the pulley mounting surface, or at least that of a short, or the difference between the two, so i can see if its worth swapping out to the short pump, or if i still won't have enough room.

1 and 5/16ths of an inch difference according to:

Scroll down about a third of the way from the top of the page to the small block chevy section.

Also here:
http://www.performancechrome.com/en-us/dept_534.html

but the diffence cited there is 1 3/8ths.

i picked up a short pump, pulleys, passenger side high mount alternator bracket(praise jeebus that moroso had the brains to make this product), remote reservoir gm type2 pump and pulley for v-belts. it's nice having summit 35 minutes away. hopefully this $300 makes my car work.
