Sent WS6 store an email to see what they can do. It's bad enough I don't want to drive it now. Starting to make a mess. I had high hopes it would stop but it just kept gettin worse. Getting tired of wiping down the engine after every drive. Sucks.....

WS6 store can't do nothing for me. They said pretty much it sucks, but out of our hands. Has to go back to Edelbrock. Sweet!!! Had to come off because I was actually losing coolant. Got underneath and it was going down the timing cover and coating the underneath of my car with sticky coolant. It wasn't going to last much longer. The coolant was dripping inside the pulley and getting flung everywhere. You can see on the side of it. It was coated. I had coolant on my bellow and bottom of my throttle body. Total pain in the butt. Bought a GMB pump and threw it on just so I can keep the car moving until I get this straightened out. I am furious. Tomorrow will be contact Edelbrock day for rma. I'm giddy with excitement

Hey Roneric, what was the outcome of this? How did the GMB pump do?
