Yea!! It's the end of the month. I thought something would be determined by now. How about JPR? Whats up? Meziere said theirs would be ready by now. I just want one that will work. I don't care where it comes from.

Whether or not it incorporates a thermostat, allows for retention of the heater and all belt driven accessories (PS, alternator, etc...) without fabbing up custom brackets, etc...

There are some older threads regarding the Meziere and JPR pumps...

I have heard over $500 for a bolt on replacement. I am working on my own version. It is a single electric motor that will have one belt run the power steering and water pump. I'm designing the brakets and tensioner pullys for the alternator and the new electric belt system. No unbolting of stock pumps, just bolt on a bracket and then get a shorter belt for the alternator and other pumps. It's a cool idea, lets see if I can make it work.

basically your doing something like is often seen on pure race engines....they have a "regular" water pump but it is run by a small electric motor.

do you have any pics of how its going along? What motor are you using to spin the water/power steering pumpes?
