The electric pumps are reliable. They have an idler pulley that takes the place of the stock water pump pulley. Belt routing does not change.

Glad to hear someone else here is in the construction industry. I'm with a a structural steel erector and still in university. Nothing quite like a job that lets you see awe inspiring sights on an almost daily basis, then go get whiplash on the drive to and from work.

Jeu just wondering if i should pick this up and if theres anything ele i would have to do to it. Long weekend of work not much to update.

heres the item in question:
http://neworleans.craigslist.org/pts/1314425391.html

also i can buy a grantelli MAF sensor and BBK throttle body for 200$ doesnt sound like a good deal to me, because ive read problems with the bbk tb "whistle" and sticking. Also i think the MAF is set up for 19# injectors which he also has so ill prolly have to get them
