hp gain on lt1 with electronic water pump ?
I was considering getting a electric water pump for my 1997 trans am and I was wondering should I. It is a daily driver so I need it to be reliable. Should I get a electronic or should I stick with my stock? How much HP should I expect to get from an electronic water pump?

Here, the dyno shows a 6.2 horsepower and 5.2 ft/lbs torque difference between the stock water pump and the Meziere electric pump installed. The average here gained 2.8 horsepower and 2.7 ft/lbs torque.
This pull was on a bolt on LT1 and the pull was to 5800rpm. Those that are spinning their cars higher will see even more gains.
