What if the flow met your needs, and you had a gauge to show it was working, and it gave you some more horsies to play with ? Would ya like it then, huh , would you ?

Here is a link to a thread on the Australian forum discussing electric water pumps.

I still can't believe the "Fan Wars" are a stalemate. It takes a special combination of ignorance and foolishness to belive that a mechanical fan is better.

A thread I found from a GT racer:
"I was running a electric water pump for 4 years, (gt5)allowed under the rules as was at last one othe compeditor I know of. last year with out warning the comp board added the words " engine driven" to the water pump description. I was forced to miss 2 races and completly rebuild the front of my car, move the steering rack, reset up front bump steer, change engine position, move trani mounts and drive shaft. find water pumps, re-make front pullies and new belts.I complained and phoned SCCA but they just dont care. The new setup is hard to fill and the engine runs 20 degrees hotter, so I was not a happy racer. but thats SCCA for you. to bad we cant get the rules so its ok to have a accesory pump, this would allow cooling the eng when hot, allow for better temp control while racing and easyer fill ups. Bob tarzwell"
FYI
Remember: We've met the enemy and it is HEAT !
