02 Fbody remote electric water pump for street
Hey guys I have an 02 Fbody with a 430lsx iron block and Procharger f1r.
I have a mechanical water pump now and I'm thinking about going to an electric remote setup.
The car is a street car so I'm curious what your thoughts are. Don't get me wrong it only gets 300 miles a year if that but I wanna make the right choice. Doing a remote setup will free up a ton of space.
Thanks!

A. the heater lines were blocked off and not looped - some coolant needs to flow.
B. no holes in the thermostat - if the installer does not drill a small hole or two in the thermostat, there is no coolant flow. Of course, a lower temp thermostat (160) will pretty much always be open and have some flow.

Meziere electric water pump in stock location. 160 thermostat with a couple small holes drilled. I kept the heater core intact for some additional flow and cooling.
