Whatever they have at my favorite Carquest. Water pump ain't gonna make that much difference. Thermostat will affect the temp more.

Just don't go cheap and get a rebuilt waterpump. They have a much shorted lifespan.
Here's a little factoid I learned when I was a commercial accounts manager at Kragen auto parts. There are only 2 waterpump manufacturers in the US. All the brands you see out there are either TRW or GMB.
