Armand,

I took a quick look at this link. These guys aren't quite as extreme in the 
B.S. as Edelbrock and the other higher price aftermarket water pump guys we 
discussed a couple of years ago - but they don't charge quite as much 
either. Too bad they don't show a picture of the impeller design; at least 
I didn't see one. Is it stamped sheet metal or a fancy shaped cast one? I'd 
stick with a Ford Motorsports HiPo or similar (like the one McCleod has). 
But then, you already know what I think about this subject. ;-) Or we can 
take Chris' advice and just loosen the old fan belt a little.
