Re: water pump drive vs electric pump
I think they are around $97. I would have to double check with the sales guys. I run our manufacturing facility and don't deal with the retail side. They are much better than the little 2 post motors though, in power and rpm. Curtis |

Re: water pump drive vs electric pump
When I used the belt drive pumps, I would order the larger overdrive pulley.
Moroso or Mr. G ? Turns the pump faster. Of course it uses up more juice.

Re: water pump drive vs electric pump
The Moroso part number 97252 is the larger drive pulley for the electric motor that is 28% faster.

14 teeth opposed to 10 as I seem to recall.

Re: water pump drive vs electric pump
Thanks for all the replies guys, I'm getting a pump drive from a local S/SS racer. Maybe down the road I'll try an electric pump but I still think it would look silly having a "race" electric pump on a 302 2bbl, LOL!!!!

Re: water pump drive vs electric pump
Following up Curtis's post above regarding those good quality 4 post drive motors. Installed one, and it works great. It's about 6 oz. heavier than the current replacement Moroso motor. In my application with a well used water pump, overdrive pulley, and "dry", the 4 post unit draws about 3 Amps vs. the Moroso's 3.5 Amps (roughly 3 yrs. of use).

Re: water pump drive vs electric pump
I don't know if any one is using them on class cars but I am switching to a Davies Craig remote mount water pump. A huge weight savings and they cool some very high HP drag and drive cars.

Re: water pump drive vs electric pump
one good thing about an electric water pump drive is that you can bolt on a light weight plastic fan blade on it and get both with one circuit.
