Waterpump help needed

Hello guys,

i´m confused with a waterpump. Look at the picture.
What kind of pump is this. Is this a clockwise or a
counterclockwise rotating pump?
Some say clockwise the other say counterclockwise.

i´m happy, if you can help

thank´s alot

Impeller to the left, back view, CW for flow = CCW front view. Flow is from the lower radiator hose intake, so a CW (back view) rotation forces flow into the engine, hence it's a CCW water pump. Or check this '95 Mustang WP pic, which is a reverse rotation pump, and compare the impeller blades position & angle, they're the same. Hope this helps.
