1: Davis Craig pump is most popular and is what I used.

2: (The simple option) In Clives picture with water pump blanking plate you retain all other standard bits I.E. fill point,stat, sensors ETC. Just fit the electric pump in the bottom hose.

3: ( The less cluttered look) This means removing the whole assy from front of the engine and fitting a  hose plate and swirl pot.



This setup needed changing to include a stat as my temps were all over. 55-60c on the move and 90c when fans cut in at stand still.

Hope this helps

Where did you mount your thermostat? I love the look of that setup, very clean.

Which davies craig pump is usually used , want to compare prices , they do 3 different ones

theres one that flows between 20 and 80 litres per min

a high flow one that flows 110 litres per min

and a small booster pump that flows 13.3 litres per min

I\'ll have to dig the water pump out , its packed away while the enigine is out for rebuild


Finally tuned - 317.3rwhp :burnout (thats 374.4fwhp for those who like bigger numbers)

Right let me apologise for being such a dumbass , I dug the pump assembly out and had a look , I\'ve realised why I was getting confused , I thought the whole assembly was one peice , now I\'ve seen the pump can be taken off the assembly and blanked off it makes sense now

If someone can recomend the best pump for the job I\'ll have a look around for prices
