Need some advice on water pumps.

Been looking at Ebay and there are lots to choose from, I think I'm leaning toward a polished WP....http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BB-CH...item45f405da60
Is there a board vendor that sells them?
Does anyone have any advice on which is best, OEM vs Remanufactured? any horror stories of ones that I should stay away from?

Re: Need some advice on water pumps.

I stay away from the reman ones, since for a few bucks more I can get a newly made one from NAPA.

I have no experience with the "hi perf" pumps.

Stay away from chrome.
