Unless Terry rigged his by adding a fitting for the heater hose, and an inline t-stat... I think he actually did make his a street version.

We are waiting for dyno numbers.

I bet the pumps will retail over $500 but I hope they are less.

If they do that BS!!!!!

Thats the biggest problem with the LS1.....everything costs 2 or 3 times as much as a SBC (hell....a Meziere SBC pump is $270 from summit...)...its just not right....

So what is unstreetable about the race version? No heat? If that is all, I will get the race version. Who needs heat?

No heater or thermostat provision, and you have to figure out a way to take care of belt routing/tensioning depending on waht accessories you've still got on the car.

It was simple for me, since all I have is an alternator.

I love my Meziere EWP...

That's what I will be doing George. Alternator only. So how do you tension the belt? Just slip it on before mounting the alternator? And I guess you run without a t-stat?

Todd, if my car wasn't apart, I would send you some pics... It's actually really simple, but hard to explain.

I made the alternator adjustable in the factory bracket, and just use a tiny little belt. I tension it with a prybar, then have one bolt to snug down for the adjustment. I made a little "adjustment" slider (out of aluminum flat bar)that bolts on to the back of the alternator.

Check out the internal section. They put the first one on Jsears' car on monday for testing. If testing goes well, they will go into production "very soon" There is a good thread in the other section about this pump.

Is anyone aware of a high amperage alternator, say, 130 amps, for an LS1?

In the most recent Summit catalog I received they have an EWP for LS1's in their new stuff section. It says it is a street version and its made by meziere. I dont have it in front of mee I think it said it had provisions for belt routing.
