So I have a car intake with my truck water pump and the throttle portion (where the throttle cable attaches) of the TB was contacting the outlet of the water pump, so I took the tube out to twist it but now it just slides in and out without any to little resistance. So my question is, is there some kind of sealant I put on the tube when I slide it in that will hold it in place and not leak?

Run a L92 water pump the outlet is 45* and will clear the TB cable.

I respectfully disagree. You can easily put that back in, but I would recommend just changing the outlet to a car style, so it points toward the front. You can easily have the housing tig welded to shut the hole, and simply bore a new hole, and weld the outlet in. Or, Just do like he said and buy a new pump.

The GTO pump is the same as all of the other car ones and would need spacers to work with the truck acc drive.
