I need to replace my water pump before heading to Hershey in September. Is there a better choice than the stock pump to buy? |headscratch|

Vette(s): 1975 Coupe NOM 350: Edelbrock 64cc heads, QJet clone, Performer manifold & cam, gear drive and water pump; MSD ProBillet dist and 6A box, Comp rollers, Hedman headers into true duals, Magnaflow cans,TH400 w/shift kit, TT2's, 3.70RA, hi-rise hood
Edelbrock's "cool" ... takes a whupping without complaint. (Like when the stock fan clutch locks up at 4K+ and the pump shaft has to deal with the torque and the wobble. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt)

I have been looking into the Stewart Hi-Flow and T-Stat today and found out that the Stewart company is only 45 minutes away. I happen to be going by there tomorrow and will stop and check it out, it sounds like the one to go with. Thanks |thumb|
