I have never seen or heard of one of those. What make them so special? Do you already own it or are you looking into buying one?

Those are racing-class water pumps. All the various threaded ports are for coolant hoses (direct to head, return from intake, etc). Decent pump if the internals are still good. Probably on par with the Edelbrock RCR series or such.

true I was thinking about getting another one and wanted to see if they might make long or at least corvette heights though but from what I have seen so far they are the best you can get. not the easiest to find or find out about though. so alot of trial and error. I am more than likely rebuilding my 406 because it has sat without being started for a year now without plugs in it so may make changes and am thinking about starting an sb2.2 build.
