I wanted to post some information with the hope that I could return the favor for countless times this forum has helped me in my restoration adventure.
A while ago I was searching like crazy to find out as much as I could about the washer pump, break point in 71 from the 5 to 3 port, etc. My February 10, 1971 built LS5 has an after market replacement or repro pump with the black ports...and only 3 of them.
Well tonight I was digging around in the many boxes of original parts that came with my car....I have no idea how I missed it but lo and behold, there at the bottom of the tote sat the original 5 port washer pump...WITH the 4/5 port bypass hose still installed....I'm in shock that I didn't see this before but I'm hoping the pictures of this can help with someone's research....
One final note, it appears the original owner sprayed the firewall black with the pump in tact.....my project now, carefully removing the black paint! Thank you to all of the contributors on these forums that make this hobby so informative and fun. Cheers!
