electric waterpump on street

what is a good electric water pump for limited street use. Going to start getting the little stuff

you prob wont believe me, but, I am using the 99 procomp pump....comes with backing plate, and fitting for hose in the box...

I am not the only (56tbird) uses one also......

I am using mine on the street right now with absolutely no problems keeping the car cool

Just check the gasket for the main housing(ie add a touch of rtv around the oring) and use just rtv red to seal it to the backing plate instead of the orings they supply

why wouldn't I believe you. Because procomp???

Mine is 3 years old . I'd buy another one ..

I have a race buddy w/one (Pro Comp) on a 454 sbf. He loves his,and looks good too

Honestly I had a top name electric fuel pump that was a chunk of shyt..........so all things man made can fail........its just that some have the cards stacked against them from the git-go.........

Wanna run your high dollar chunk against my pro comp junk???

oh I'll have no problem with that...............

Sorry for the guys that ignored your question.
The electric pump is lighter, and does not run when not needed. The higher end ones push more GPH than stock, if you need that.
Looks factor in also.
All in all, you are best off with an aluminum mech pump, unless you want to drop some dough for the kewl factor.

i'm running a procomp pump. haven't had any problems yet

I'm gonna buy me one, plus some head, then I'LL be good to go.

I've been against them in the past, but in that combination,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I'm in!

I have no prob running a pro comp. Considering some of the great trustworthy people that like them. Was going meizere until now. Thanks guys.

oh so true!

I hear Les got his ProComp headed mustang into the 9's................

Back too the original thread question, I too agree that a good alum.mech pump would work best imo, for street use.

Tha what you have to do when you get old.

Head(s) is/are never cheap, even if they can't suck good. And I'm talkin' 'bout Procomp.
