The Ford Barn

I am having my engine rebuilt and a Riley head added. Not having it here in front of me my question is, is the water pump in the same location or is it higher? Just trying to figure out things in advance. My car has the Ford four blade fan and an aftermarket shroud so I am wondering if there is going to be a clearance problem or not?
TIA

Original Riley heads located the water pump in pretty much the same location. Not too sure about the Yapp heads, but they should be the same.
