RE: water pump install
I just did an H/C/I......probably (at least I hope) over 300hp.......I have a new OEMwaterpump, 180-degree Thermo....and an aluminum radiator......
It runs almost too cool.....in other words, I would go with an OEM pump.....The high flow pumps are only needed on real big applications

As far as what to watch out for.......make sure your get a good seal on the gaskets.....I put some gasket sealer on mine with the gaskets....no leaks
