I'm hooked on your project. I check this thread every couple of days. Keep up the good work. Car is going to be super nice when you get through with it. I love those old foxes.

i would have loved to have gotten that because the price is so much more reasonable, but Mezeire told me it wouldn't keep me cool on the street. is that what you were told?

i actually ordered it from BMR...

the price difference is a good thing, but id rather buy parts once... plus i dont need the pulley since im only using an alternator so it looks cleaner...

here's the link

scroll down towards the end of the page, $342 but you need to buy the lower outlet fitting seperately.

where do you buy the extra fitting at (i only see one on your pump?)

also how do you route a belt for it with the ps and alternator but no pump?
i see an adjustable alternator bracket, is that what i have to get???
i know this is the wrong forumn but youve already done it...

you can get the fitting from meiziere or any other place(ie: summit/jegs), the reason it doesnt come with the pump is becasue the hose can be a few different sizes. if you plan to run p/s id get the pump with the pulley(the $600) i got this one because im only using an alternator.
