MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Water pump nut's

Hi all just fitted a replacement water pump on my 1500 RB midget the flange is thicker than the old one hence I can't get a full nut on the studs any idea what the thread is on the studs ,Thought I might be able to get half nuts ? Also have fitted an aluminum radiator from e-bay 64.95 including carriage looks Good

Ive not seen any issues before with the 1500 water pump fitting... correct pump ???

Looks nice.

Warning ... some of the ebay rads are really thin in the joints and have had issues cracking and even breaking off.

It might be wise to take it to a rad specialist and have them look it over and replace any suspicious joints and welds ... illuminate any issues down the road
