The embodied invention is directed toward providing a flexible power belt routing to peripheral components by relocating the water pump to a substantially central location on the engine. This is accomplished by designing two adaptor plates which route the coolant water between the water pump and the engine coolant ports. When the water pump is centrally located on the engine, other peripheral belt driven components, such as air conditioning and power steering, can be suitably located around the front of engine so as to permit the motor to be retrofitted into various engine spaces in a variety of cars, trucks, and vehicles. |

1. Adaptor plates in a coolant assembly designed to locate a water pump at a substantially centered location on an engine comprising:
a) said water pump with four water pump coolant ports, b) said engine with four engine coolant ports, c) a pair of said adaptor plates, wherein each said adaptor plate further comprises:
i) an engine side and a pump side,ii) a first rectangular opening, wherein
1. said first rectangular opening is located on said engine side of said adaptor plate,2. said first rectangular opening corresponds to one said coolant port of said engine,iii) a second rectangular opening, wherein
1. said second rectangular opening is located on said pump side of said adaptor plate,2. said second rectangular opening corresponds to one said coolant port of said pump,iv) wherein said first rectangular opening and said second rectangular opening are connected, andv) an elongated opening, wherein said elongated opening is located on
1. said pump side of said adaptor plate and corresponds to a coolant port on said water pump,2. said engine side of said adaptor plate and corresponds to a coolant port on said engine,and d) a pair of gaskets associated with each said adaptor plate. |
