does anyone know the flow rating of a stock water pump???

hey all......

just wondering if anyone knew the gpm flow rating of a stock water pump? i'm especially interested in knowing the 3000rpm and under flow where the motor will be spinning at in normal street & highway driving. i am looking at getting a Meziere "race" pump which is rated at 35gpm's vs the street 55gpm's. i've heard of a few using this pump and not experiencing any overheating issues, and i'll probably end up getting one an trying it anyway, but i figured i'd see if there's a rating on a stock pump or not first.

thanks.

I'm using the Meziere 55gpm version in my 1989 Trans Am and it actually helped in keeping things cooler over the stock pump. Especially at idle and slow traffic.
