I bet that it does have an idler that goes with it. I think that is what is on the back of it actually. Just a free floating pulley with effortless spin.

But then again who knows. Vague descriptions suck.

$100 more and you get an LS1 specific pump. That one looks like a generic inline kind of pump. It can be used as a "booster pump", so I doubt it'll have anything for our cars. Gutting the stock pump and turning it into a "fitting" for pulling water out, along with using this pump, would probably weigh more than the stock pump anyway.

That pump goes inline of your radiator hose. It is a generic "fit all" pump. For not much more, you can have the whole billet aluminum meziere that is designed for our cars.
