What is your goal with going electric? You will have less parasitic loss but it will not cool as well at higher rpm.

My Meziere cools my 427/F1C/901 RWHP engine fine. Highly recommended.

I've got a new, black Meziere pump that I'll sell. I keep forgetting to put it up for sale. I used it for mocking up my motor. I had one on Albert's motor that I put on my motor, so this one got put on the shelf. Let me know if you want it. Anyone else wants it and blown81 doesn't, PM me.
650.00 shipped.

I considered trying one of those Evans pumps. You run one on your C5? Any cooling difference? My car hates the AC on in the summer sitting still. I've got just about every cooling mod you can think off except I'm still running a stock pump. I'd like to stay mechanical.

I need that!! Mine will creep up to 220 then 225 then 228 and keep going if i let it. I usually end up turning the AC off.

You say the electric pump is what I need then Eh?

How do these work with cars that get driven a lot?
