Cosmo and FC water pumps swappable?

I was just wondering if I can use my FC water pump on my Cosmo motor? IT would save me a lot of trouble when it comes to the coolant drain for the turbo and connecting my upper radiator hose.

a cosmo pump should work on an fc as the pump spins the same direction. where fd pumps spin the other direction.

Anyone know, also, where im going to get the coolant feed from for my turbo?

I didnt pay much attention to it when I was ripping it apart.

Or where I can hook up my brake booster?

ok Tony. . .

Brake booster can be run to the hard line that is under the UIM. I simply cut mine and attached the two pieces with rubber hose so it would face in the correct position. It'll make sense if you look at it. If not, I'll send you a pic.


Why are you worried about the Cosmo coolant sensor? Just get a new FC one if you're concerned. I swapped the entire front cover when I did mine. That way I got rid of a few problems. My Haltech sensor fit in with no problems.

Coolant feed, I can't help you. I'm using an oil only turbo.

The coolant sensor went in no problem. I was concerned, cause I didnt feel like soldering a new connector on for a different sensor.

If youve got a pic of that hose id like to see it, I think I know which tube your talking about.

I think I got my coolant situation figured out too.
