I send this out a few years ago about the hub distance.
The distance from the pump face to the hub is Tiger specific. See the
Shop Manual then check your pump. Please note the numbers for this
distance are NOT correct in the Manual, so check your pump. Also check
that when the pump is on the engine that the fan belt is straight between
all the pulleys. This is another indication that you have the original
parts or at least the right distance.
Distance in the Manual 260 5.15" 289 5.43"
Correct Numbers 4.875" 5.1"
The source of the correct numbers is "The Sunbeam Survivor" from TE/AE.

Subject: Re: Pulley Measurements...
Thanks Steve.
I see the printed Workshop Manual is wrong with the hub to the pump housing
measurement.
Tigers United to the rescue!
That caused me some concern, because I bought the Edelbrock 8842 water pump
and suddenly my pulleys weren't in alignment, so now I need to see about
having the pump hub pressed back closer to the housing.
I thought a couple people on this mailing list bought this same Edelbrock
pump, but nobody ever mentioned whether it was a straight bolt-on or some
tweaking was needed.
The Edelbrock pump measures in at 5.15" and my Sunbeam Specialties pump
measures in at 4.875" for the hub to housing measurement.
Thanks again,
Paul
