get a CSI one, they are cheaper than stock and last longer. just my $0.02.

CSI pump=$130 +7 horses freed up.


Really I always thought that it lasted a shorter time compared to the stocker.

Oh well.

well, it is driver specific, in that, it has close to 2500 hour life expectancy (some people have reported much more) and the AVERAGE life of a stock LT1 waterpump is around 3 to 5 years. Do the math based on how many hours you think you drive per year to get the most cost-effective solution

P.S. my waterpump worked fine when I got the CSI, I just did it due to heads/cam swap.

93-4[unvented] are 300 ish
95-7[vented] are 200 ish from Jason Cromer..
But whatever you do don't! pay that 'dealer' 380 for one...
sorry,

94 (unvented) T/A M6, 102k miles So $300 is the best that can be done on the POS unvented opti's?
