Remote mount water pump...

Just looking at freeing up some space in front.

Who's running one of these effectively? Drag race ONLY type situation or is it not any different than any other electric water pump?

Just TIG'ing the AN fittings to the motor plate? What are you using for a seal between motor plate and block?

I tig'd the -16 fittings to the plate but if I were to do it again, I'd tig them to an aluminum block that bolts to the motor plate. Standard water pump seals.

yeah, i did the newb thing by posting before search. plenty of info with the part numbers for those adapter plates Tom Kempf had used on his ride.

so just standard seals between the motorplate and the block. ok, then probably another set if i do the adapter plates.

Thanks Phil!

That looks awesome Steve!

This is going in a G-body Malibu, but it's nice to know that option is there. I'm sure you could taylor it to our specifications
