I've been posting here for a month looking for a water pump pulley for a B200 engine used in the 300-series cars. The shorter pump than the one used on 240/740/940 models.

One like this one:

Seems that nobody has one? Are they hard to come by in Europe? They never came to the US, so impossible to find here.

there's a man who has parts of the B200.
maybe you can also find it on his site:

Otherwise just ask your question on the Dutch forum ;)

Majority of 360's had B200 engine so those are not very rare, but part is probably such that it is not much wanted so if motor is replaced that part usually is left to old engine which again is forgotten to somewhere.

Also B200 is just too strong engine, it is not common to see one fail before 500 000 mark so most of those parts are still in use in those motors.

I have only one of those and my motor needs one. I know where you could probably find one, but that would be finnish board, it has quite active buy/sell section, but I don't know if that would be any use for you?
