Some years ago I read an article in a magazine such as Hot Rod about a water pump improvement trick. It involved simply installing a backing plate on the impellers to reduce/prevent water from spilling off the sides. They installed it on some V8 that was chronically hot and got substantial cooling improvements. Just something to consider.
You might also want to consider going with an electric water pump instead of the mechanical. They've come a long ways. They flow well and last. You can find them advertised in various circle track magazines. >>> "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 02/07/03 09:49AM >>> I am considering improving flow and subsequent cooling on the GT6 water pump. After exhausting all attempts to make my GT6 run cooler at idle on a hot day (its much better and doesnt overheat but still gets pretty hot idling on those days) /// [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list /// Send admin requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/majorcool /// Archives at http://www.team.net/archive /// Send list postings to [EMAIL PROTECTED] /// Edit your replies!
