Need A Water Pump

[Dandy97]

Blew the shaft seal on my water pump on the way home from work yesterday. Who's the best source without waiting for an eBay auction to end for a new pump. I want to get'r replaced and back on the road pronto.

Not sure of price, very reasonable, probably will still need gasket

that's unbelievable..... Must be a catch.

It's possible they are rebuilds. NAPA had rebuilds for sale for like $110 at one point. Kurt W pointed that out a while back.

[GOLDCYLON]

Things that make you go hmmmmm?

[A26B]

Ok.... I checked
NAPA online
Rebuilt Pump = $144.00 (gasket not mentioned)
New Pump = $535.00 (gasket not mentioned)

Corvette Central = $199 (does not specify new or rebuilt, gasket included)

eBay
h20pumpman, rebuilt pump = $199.00 (buy it now, w/OEM gasket)
thepartsladi, new GM/Delco = $439.00 (gasket not mentioned)
jimbutlerchevrolet, new GM/Delco = $445.00 (gasket not mentioned)
northernautoparts, aftermkt Airtex = $328.00 (w/gasket)
salemfrank, new GM/Delco = $550.00 (no gasket)

I have one obvious question, where did the used castings come from for anyone to even offer a rebuilt pump? Oddly enough, the rebuilt pumps look like newly machined castings.

If you examine the price spread, it's obvious a new GM/Delco pump is in a completely separate pricing group, even the new NAPA pump (mfg unknown, and the Airtex pump.

GM is out of new pumps.

I suspect we are seeing an influx of foreign knock-offs, probably from China.

I have no idea of the quality of these supposed "remanufactured" or aftermarket pumps, or how long they will last. What I do know, is that usually you get what you pay for.

The pumps I have are new, OEM, GM/Delco pumps, packed in original boxes. Buy what ever makes you happy. I have about 15 pumps left. When they are gone, that's it. The price is $320.00, my manufactured gasket included. Shipping by USPS Priority Mail usually runs about $22.00.

I have water pump gaskets at $21.00 when sold separately.

Hope this helps to alleviate some of the questions.

If I needed a water pump, or anything Jerry had to offer.... I would NOT hesitate to purchase anything from him without a need to price check.

His prices and attention are what make this club awesome! :thumbsup:

Talk to Owen at Bouqet auto parts in Canyon Country, Ca.
Got mine from him about a yr ago. New GM piece, was under $300.

He said at that time Cardone was buying as many as they could and reboxing them, dont know whats floating around out there right now.

[PhillipsLT5]

Well thats some solid info
What Jerry does for our cult has no price tag
Thanks Jerry & Keep producing the stuff we need
See you in Vegas?

Jerry, the Corvette Central pump is new and bears the same cast/part # as the ones you are selling. It is just a great buy. Guess they got some closeouts.
