Anyone using the Moroso/Mr Gasket electric water pump drive?

I had a motor fail on the Mr Gasket version in 30 minutes while doing a cam break in. That was over a year ago and summit sent me a new one. I haven't tried the new one yet.
At the last race I lost my crank ,Alt,water pump belt twice and the engine got a little warm (250*+).
I race this Saturday and the Mr Gasket deal is hooked up to a new water pump.
I'm kind of curious if anyone else is running this setup and how it works on a bbf?

Haven't had any problems with mine.

NO problems with mine even use it on the street

Mike i have never had a problem with mine i have always ran it on the ranger one thing i like is if i need to cool it off i can just leave it running with the engine shut off to cool it down in netween runs

I have one on my 65 with no problems It is hooked to a wieland alum. water pump.I also ran one on my 69 for yrs I had a over drive pully on it, worked good for yrs and left with the car.

Thanks guys
I think I just needed a little support after the last motor failed.
Ward, I also have the overdrive pulley.

Same as all the guys above, no problem. Been using the same one for over 20 years. Even with different water to you guys, it goes down the bowl opposite way!!!!

I raced today and had a little issue with the drive motor. The circuit breaker (8.5 amp) tripped 2 times.
What amperage fuse or breaker are you guys using??
Other than that it worked great and the temp stayed under 200*. Man does it cool down fast with the fans and pump running with the engine off.
How much HP does the water pump steal? Reason I ask is because the truck was way too fast today for the 12.00 index. On my first qualifying run I lifted just past the 1000ft and went 11.88 @ 100mph. The second run I lifted and was on the binders and did a 12.10 @ 95mph.
The truck has never ran like this and I have no idea why!!

There could be lots of reasons why it was running better than it ever has. With the electric pump drive, it's not how much power it uses, but the parasitic loss of spinning it. Kind of like going from DOT tires to cut tires.
