Two things. WIth the cheap cast one, it RUSTS quick!

And peeps have had issues with the FRPP units leaking. Sanding/abrading the chrome off the hose union areas seems to help.

Good luck.

i have the chrome Frpp one and haven't had an issue. no leaks at all

the one that devloped the leak after 1 year was the chrome ffrp. It is not leaking from the mating surface, it has a spot about 1.25" diameter rusted through. JUNK but the problem is i dont run antifreeze just water weter (cuz the race track frowns on anti freeze). will try the 100.00 dollar one its just money right? mabye I will just let the race track frown at me and run some antifreeze also. chris

Did you figure out anything to do about treating the inside of the housing? That was my larger concern........
