lower hose keeps blowing off of water pump

i just replaced my radiator and hoses and thermostat along with putting some new heads and an lt1 cam but now the lower radiator hose keeps blowing off of the water pump. do you think the clamp just isn't tight enough or could the water pump be bad?

Is it a stock pump?
