Default C6Z Racing water pump

This is for a C6 Zo6. I have seen models around for a racing higher output water pump. Not an electric pump. However I can't get any figures regarding GPM output or these or the stock water pump. does anyone know? Also who sells these? Thanks.

I think (key word "think") that the stock pump flows 22 gph @ 5500 rpm. After a few beers, I can pee more than that!

all at the same RPM

evans has a steep price though

edelbrock is expensive, but not too bad

also, all the above pumps and the stock pump could be pulley-ed smaller, therefore flowing more

Thanks for your response. I finally found Evans in a Thunder Racing catalog. It looks like I can do much the same thing with just a pully, and new belt, and save alot. Think GM carries those items? Haven't seen them in a catalog.
