Electric Water Pump

Should I buy the two hole block adapter or the three hole one?
Is the three hole one for turbo?
I have a 1980 SA non- turbo 12A.
Thanks,
Vin

I believe it depends on the type of pump you want. The 3 outlet is for a certain type whose name I cant remember, but it was very popular. Meziere was it?
There is another type that is real popular in Australia and better than the others I looked at before. It's a universal inline pump and uses the two outlet adapter.. That's what I would go with personally. I think it's cheaper too..

I just bought one

Ya, I just bought the Davies Craig pump.
But I'm still not sure how the three port adapter plate would work.
Thanks,
Vin

Uhh

So... I don't understand the three port one, but can anyone tell me if the two port one will definitely work with the Davies Craig?
Thanks

You might want to consider the Stewart pump. http://www.stewartcomponents.net/Mer...Code=ElectPump

personally i would go with the 3 hole one, and go to your auto store, get a plug for the third hole and in case you go turbo, or w/e youll have an extra outlet. or if you go with the other style of pump.... just an idea..

Thanks!

Thanks for the strait answer about the two hole working and the great idea about the three hole. I think I will go with the three hole after all and plug it as suggested. Anyone see a problem with that?
Thanks,
Vin
