High Volume Water Pump

[StylinP]

So, I'm just checking my research out. I'm getting ready to replace the timing chains/guides/tensioners/etc. While I'm at it, I'm going to replace the water pump.

Are these two the correct choice? Short style, correct?

Why not just use one from Ford?

I have the EMP Stewart and if I recall I was impressed with it's quality. The impeller looked much more efficient that the OEM Ford.

I got a Stewart EMP when I changed mine at 179k. It's quality part.

The Ford part works just fine.....I have the EMP Stewart one and have seen no real advantage over the OEM pump!!:shake:

Spent your money elsewhere!!:beer:

If I recall correctly there was a higher flow OEM Ford water pump. Maybe it came on Navigators? I also have an aftermarket pump, from Evans. I didn't see any real benefit.

Thanks!

I work in the parts biz, so I get it at cost.

And I might as well get this out of the way, because I always get asked: Sorry, I can't get anyone else a discount. It could cost me my job! ;)


I plan on gradually upping the power of this motor, and taking it down the drag strip quite a bit. So I really want to up the cooling capacity.
