Gathered a few more parts...
Here are the two new parts I picked up this week.
CSR billet electric waterpump Alan Grove Components low mount alt. bracket I've still got to get a new alternator (mine has some nasty shaft play) and a new crank pulley. I think they'll make well for my simple engine bay plan...

Is there an advantage to having an electric water pump over stardard? Looks good.

Looks good 87!
As for the electric water pump, One benefit is no perasidic(sp?) drag on the crank. Freeing up more HP. Kind of like putting an electric fan on and dumping the clutch fan. Also there's the cool factor!!

or the fact that I can circulate my coolant without having the start the engine. Very handy at the track on a hot day when you want to get the engine down to a prime temp, just run the pump and circulate the cooler water fromt he radiator through the block.

Yeah not much HP gain. Neither is a electric fan conversion, but that doesn't stop people from doing it.
