Default Electric water pumps

Does anyone know If I can get a water pump like these?

I know they make them for SBC and LS1 but I have never seen one for a reverse cooling LT1.

I want to stand up my radiator and use one with NPT bungs and just want to ditch the stock water pump housing. I have thought about the afco radiator and a radiator mounted water pump with fitting on the block. Just not sure what to do with the thermostat. Can I use something like this?

I have personally never seen a water pump setup like that for the LT1. Due to the reverse flow, you are probably limited to using the stock housing. No reason with a lot of work and research and ingenuity you could do it though.
