As far as I know the stock pullies are still avalable, I have the Ford part number if you need it. They are high priced

What is the depth of both pulleys? I assume there is nothing behind the pump pulley? Is this on a 260? Try putting the generator or alternator on and see what lines up.
And here's a thought, maybe you have the wrong water pump.
Don't know if this will help, but it shows the various pulleys and part numbers. Scroll down for water pump pulleys.

Pump may be wrong but the pullies for Tiger were Industrial Ford fork lift, they set back more than the stock Ford part!!

Really? A forklift part?

From what I see, the crank pulley looks correct, water pump appears to be a wrond on as the original doesn't have a kink in it between the mount and the groovev like this appears to. However, as pointed out, the pump may apso not be correct since the Tiger version has the flange on the shaft pressed closer to the pump body which if wrong may make up for the mismatch.

The engines and pullies were from a 260 Ford fork left, nothing diff about the engines but the pullies were sure diff. may check the pump it was stock Ford but the mount was removed and flipped over and pressed down closer to the pump body I think it was to within 1/8 inch.

Clearance to the rack I'd guess. It was probably the only thing they had that worked without making a Tiger specific part. Combined with the fact that Tiger engines came from Ford's industrial engine plant, everything was already in place so that there was a minimum number of bits that needed to be made for the project.

Tiger blocks are not underbored 289s, easiest way to make a boat anchor is to try to bore to 4" diameter cylinders. That incorrect information has been circulating for years and is based on the fact that the first 220/260 blocks had 2 freeze plugs per side. When the 289 was changed to 3 the then industrial 260 castings changed as well and this lead some to think they were 289 blocks on the assumption that the 260 casting would never change. Since the change was to make the casting easier to clean out before machine work started, and the only real difference between the two was cylinder diameter, I don't see why some would have assumed they'd have difference masters for creating the casting cores.
That's nothing. I have it from a good authority (a guy in the Kroger parking lot) that the 289 was actually a Chevy design. Stated out as a 260. GM didn't like the design and gave (yes, gave) it to Ford.
I don't believe that one, either.
