Showing how to press the shaft off of the impeller and out of the case. 

I am rebuilding the water pump from my 1949 GMC with a 228 L6.  I will be using a rebuild kit ordered from eBay.  The Chevys use a different water pump, but I think the procedure is the same.  I'm following the directions from the GMC shop manual.
