[Paging]: Ralph, Mezzier pump?
I noticed in Cunningham's thread you said you installed an electric WP on your car finally. What was the outcome on the heater hose connection and belt routing?

Brian, I saw the job Ralph did on the car and it is a work of art. It's alot more work on a L98 than a LT1.
Super job. :thumbs:

I know you guys are talking L98s, but I have an electric Meziere pump on my LT-1 and it has made a tremendous difference in my cooling system. The General should have put electric water pumps on in the beginning. :yesnod:

I don't have any dyno data on its gain in HP, but after looking at the LT-1 water pump set up, it has to free some up. I'm just so excited about its improvement in my cooling system, that I haven't really done a butt dyno test yet. I would guess that it produces more than the "tire shredding"TB airfoils or TB bypasses.
