Default LT1 Water Pump Mod

I figured I would throw this in here, might help a few people out.
I replaced my Water Pump today with a Factory GM one. I did a little extra mod. Most of us know that when they are about to go, they start pissing out of that little hole in the bottom of it. When it does this, it conveniently leaks all over the OPTI. I kinda fixed that problem for next time it goes, or starts leaking.


I made this out of some Aluminum flashing. It goes all the way to the back, and will catch all of the dripping when it starts. It is angled, you can't really see it in the pic, but it will all come out the front. A little 5 min mod that can save $400.

Cool idea. You could probably sell those on Ebay. Cut me in on the profits pls since I suggested it to you. Tia
