You cannot fit an S4 water pump to and S5 water pump housing and vice versa.
Also, one of the combinations will not fit due to the front oil cover not having the correct "dent" to fit.
(I think S4 water pump housing fits on an S5 front oil cover but not the other way around.)
SO YOU'RE STILL WRONG.
Like I said before, stop spreading misinformation if you're not sure.

OBVIOUSLY the necks and the pumps NEED to be kept with the same waterpump housing, that's why I said the "housings" are interchangeable. As in the ENTIRE housing. Admitadley not the best choice in words, perhaps assembly? You take an S4 waterpump, an S4 T-stat neck and an S4 waterpump housing, now you have an S4 Waterpump Assembly. Take that and stick it on an S5. The S4 assembly WILL fit on the S5 front cover, how do I know? Because, a good friend of mine has done it.
Also, the S6 waterpump assembly will fit on a cosmo. How do I know this, becuase I've done it. If you want to get your panties in a bunch ted, you're wrong in saying they are not interchangeable. Maybe waterpumps and housings aren't, I am CERTAIN of that, but assemblies are. Stop spreading misinformation.
Jeez, are we done now?
If you're planning on making a water neck out of steel, I would make certain that it is coated EXTREMELY well. There is a chance that it could create a wee bit of electrolsis. Probably me just being paranoid from so many years (almost 20 now) being in and around the marine world.
