Well the old one just started giving up. Fluid was coming out of the hole in the top so time for a new one.
I was thinking about getting an electric one but I hear they don't last long. I drive it about 1000 miles a month 7 months out of the year.

If not electric whats the best belt driven one?

Flowmaster,Edelbrock open filliment filter with K&N filter in it
160 stat, BF G-Force w-rated tires

 

I've had great success with Stewarts.

------------------
89 iroc-z 305 tbi
k&n filtercharger, open element air filter. nuffin' else

 

Electric pumps really are designed to be race only. Even if longevity wasn't an issue, the price and hassle of rerouting the belts wouldn't be worth the effort.

I'll second the recommendation for the Stewart water pump. http://www.stewartcomponents.com/

 

I dunno, seems like you have a stock engine and the last one lasted you okay for a good 9 years. I'd opt for an OEM replacement.

 

are the stock ones aluminum? i've herad lots of good stuff about stewart pumps.. whatever you get, since you have to replace it, get an aluminum one(why not, ya know?)
