Water pump torque specs
I have to replace a water pump in the next day or two on my Girlfriends C5 Vette. Do any of you guys know the torque specs on the mounting bolts. And any tips of the replacement process would be greatly appreciated.

Get ready for a sore back from leaning over the car. My car is a '97 and had the paper gaskets that were a pain to remove. The new pump should come with the metal gaskets. Just make sure you go through the correct process after filling with coolant. There is a special procedure that you need to do. I have seen a thread on here somewhere. GOOD LUCK!!
