It’s too early in the AM for me to access the microfiche….I’ll double check when I get home from work. But if you know that the 47-F number is right for your engine, that’s probably the one I will come up with. My feeling is that a six vane impeller in a sixties West bend product will be fine. A long time ago, I modified an 18 hp West Bend to use a 9.9/15 OMC impeller turning in what I think was an ’80s 4 hp OMC plastic/stainless pump housing. The impeller was half the size of the original; but I figured if it would cool a 15 OMC, it would cool the West bend. It cooled GREAT and the motor ran like a top. What a great, great motor that was. Why didn’t I keep it???
Long live American manufacturing!
