water pump

[mooseknuckles]

anyone using an aftermarket water pump? the stock truck pump outlet interferes with my cold air kit and most likely will be a prob with a ls6 intake later on....been loking at this one..the edelbrock's too much....

I used a car intake with a truck pump. I just heated the pump housing with a torch and twisted the neck where i wanted,its just a press fit.

I'm looking at using a car pump on a LQ4...anyone else done this??

You will need water pump spacers to make up the difference in offset of the accessory drive. There's a few that have done it over on ls1tech...

Can also swap the pulley, but it's supposedly a huge pain...

I think that's the idea of the extra wide pulley on this one?...

Moose, I used a water pump from a 2002 camaro LS1 and used water pump spacers from a company called Dirty Dingo. I also used there idler relocation kit. Everything cleared great then. Only issue was getting the correct length belt.
