A few people have ask about the Stewert water pump and I finally got a replacement camera to document the rest of the build.
The pump has larger diameter inlet/outlet ports then the stock factory tubing so I used silicon hose reducers to make the transitions.
I cut out a section of the coolent tube and welded the hose barb back on.
The pump fits rather nicely between the rack and the roll bar. It's also above the transome so I don't have to worry about armadillo strikes.
I welded a 1/4" thick bracket to the frame to keep it put.
The view without the fiborglass trunk liner shows the basic layout. The pump controller will be mounted on the inner fender well tucked into the nook behind the passanger side headlamp.
The pump does fit under the puke tank and clears the stock fan shroud.
These's pumps will flow 55 gpm and have a 10,000 MTBF rating. That's about half what a stock SBC pump will flow at 5000 rpm. When you put it in real world terms, I should have the same flow rate at idle as I would have at 65 mph. and I can maintain that after I shut the engine off untill the preset shut off temp is reached.
