Electric water pump EWP options for LT5? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

5ABI VT · 08-24-2015

Im interested in a radiator upgrade over the winter and will move to an electric water pump. Ive read a lot about the bypass and it worries me because doing a full throttle run from 1-4th on a runway and the coolant is bypassed pretty much the entire time. I really don't like that thought very much. Makes me wonder to be honest how hot the temps are getting by the time Im in 4th gear and how much timing is being pulled.

On the LTx the pump sits on the waterpump face. Ive heard of in line pumps as well. Has anyone used 2 inline pumps one to and from the rad?
