Theory, and a Boner, on my Super-A

Posted by P and R Pete on April 09, 2008 at 13:55:34 from (207.7.179.22):

Boner first.
Buttoned-up the rear main seal, went to put on my flywheel on my new-old crank, to discover I hadn't noticed that the machinist hadn't moved the dowel from the original crank to this one.
Doh!
Is this absolutely necessary to have one, so long as I make sure to line up the dowel-holes? I neither want to remove nor hammer on the crank.

Theory-
New sleeves and pistons took me from a 113 to a 123. It ran HOT previously, often to the point of boiling, and I don't want this to get any worse. ("Thermo-siphon", my *ss. It's efficiency has been underwhelming).
ANy reason why I shouldn't put on a water pump? And am I right that this would require a different head gasket? Is there a pump that is just a bolt-in affair, that would line-up with the extra fan pulley?

Thanks
