Need a new water pump.

Any recommendations for one? Also how hard/easy is it to install it? I don't want to go electrical because I don't drive it that often.
It is a 2000 ls1

Thanks

Autozone sells a Duralast and a Valucraft brand water pump. They are $135 and $185. Anyone ever messed with these? I have a mild cam with stock heads (not sure if that matters) there was no overheating problems with the stock waterpump. Anyone care to chime in it would be awesome. Prob going to buy it today or tomorrow. The "better" ones online are like 300-600. With the big price difference I am curious what to do!

Thanks!

edit: Airtex pump is $169.99 from Carquest (just called and confirmed n2ceptor)

You all think the brand really matter?
