You can also put washers behind the crankshaft pulley, Ended up doing that on my Bird. Pressing the hub back on the water pump may be a better idea. There is a spec for the distance form the front of the water pump shaft to the front of the hub and mine was actually off. Did not have a press so shimmed the crank pulley. Finally got it all lined up right or very close.   .

There are several different sizes of water pump pulleys. They vary in diameter and depth. If you have any Y-block friends see if they have a stash of pulleys. You should be able to find something to work. Chuck
