Installation notes
Check the flatness of both the plate and engine block surface before installation. Use new gaskets when overhauling the water pump. Tighten mounting bolts in a cross pattern with even torque to prevent distortion.

Historical context
The flathead 6-cylinder engines were used by Dodge from the 1930s through to the late 1960s in military and civilian lorries. The 230 ci version was the standard powertrain for many WC-series vehicles during WWII.
