anyone ever try a different water pump than stock...what works and why the swap?
#13
So how long did the original OEM unit take the abuse before it gave up the ghost? Sometimes OEM and aftermarket quality are near equal but I'm wondering if the OEM pump with a tack weld would be stronger.
I guess you could also try to key it the same way you would a balancer.
EDIT: I see Edelbrock offers a water pump with a bolt on pulley. Part # is 8896(pulley sold separately)
