Summit high flow water pump...anyone tried it?

[68keyblr]

Is it any good?

Is it worth getting a high-flow?

Who makes Summit's parts? Made in USA?

Will it stand up to 6K + RPM?

It's going in a P-headed 331, about 9.5:1 compression.

Thanks!

They work fine, not sure who makes them for them however..

I also use http://www.stewartcomponents.com/ nice stuff that works great.

6500 should be no issues at all

Stick with the stewarts. Stay away from Milidon. They may flow well at high rpm but not enough at idle which is when you need it the most. Summit also sells stewarts. Another good option is the edelbrock water pump but they can be a bit expensive. Just don't go cheap on a waterpump. Cooling is not something that you can afford to have something break.

The only Stewart pump I found for SBF on Summit is like $400...Is there antthing in the $100 range that I'm missing?

I ordered mine directly from stewarts. Click on the link that Rick posted. You can also probably give summit the part number too.

Just order direct, they have the pumps that are under $100, although that $400 is nice and works like a champ. They have some good reading on their site also, check it out...

Thanks for the info, I'm definitely going to check it out.

Keep checking the site in case it was acting up. The last Stewart I got was for the '94 and was 75 beans (from Summit).

Good luck.
