Good work!
I like the fact that the engine stays cool, even when driving the car on the street.

I may "dust-off" my lay-out I did years ago, for a cast aluminum housing, that accepts the current crop of electric motor / impeller assemblies...

Pics 1 and 2 were my first attempt,didnt like that the impeller wasnt further towards the block,was concerned that the water would just get swirled around and not pushed tru the motor....Attempt # 2,pics 3 and 4 got the impeller into the block,unfortunetly the water spigot I welded on didnt hit the water port in the block.At this point,about 20 hrs in I decided to get a new stock pump,cut the front off and was trying to figure how to mount elec motor to stock impeller,that failed also.Decided to get the Stewart in line pump and cap my butchered stock pump,Stewart was out of stock waiting on parts,Summit was out of stock,Jegs only had a remanufactured one so thats what I got,,,capped my waterpump hole, plumbed pump,tested it and it didnt work,binding impeller,,,,,Will finish story tonight,my finger is sore,Mark

Wow that is something I would bet alot of guys would buy, good work. I'm trying to save parasitic loss anywhere I can as well. Seriously that would be a saleable item just like the blueprinted oil pumps. Cool car as well.
Thanks Derek
