I think that there are alternative thermostat housings (like the one that came
on the '67 1275) that allow you to use the bigger pully without having
clearance problems.

If you can't fit a bigger water pump pulley can you fit a smaller  crank
pulley?  If you use the 2 part Cooper S damper you wouldn't  compromise
damping.
Or if you are using the tin crank pulley you could get  a solid aluminum one
and turn down the section the belt runs in.

the thermostat housing if I do that. I have  already ground away a good bit
of the housing for the belt to clear it, and  still treat the outer surface
of the belt and the housing with paraffin wax  in case the belt wobbles
around at speed. I have a head from a 1275 on the  948.
