The water pump is a bolt on. Are you sure your not talking about a water pump pully? There is a big difference. You can go to autozone.com and look on there site and see the options.

Factory original pumps were all bolt on. If you still have the factory pump you can get the bolt on OR the press on. The press on comes with the pulley on it anyways so regardless of what your original one is it will work.
