Meziere water pump here . car never ran hotter than 180 even when beating on it. my fans were tuned to come on earlier and they hardly ever did.

CSR makes a comparable one for like $160 and summit also has one for about $140.

it is a damn good investment because not only does it keep your car running cool all the time you can also bleed the coolant system in a few minutes with the car off. also the freeze plug you install prevents the weep hole from soaking your opti IF it ever craps out.

PS you will have to trim the fan shroud a little bit to fit the thing in there.

I just put the Summit in my LT1 about 2 weeks ago. It definitely stabilizes the temp. It stays about 175-180 deg all the time. Not as much up and down. I also have my fans coming on early and except when the A/C is on they don't run anymore.

I also dropped my ET by a 1/10. Not much, except I went from 12.0 to 11.9.

What car are up putting it on?

I got a Meziere on my 347 and one on a Northstar swap. Both run great lots of hard miles no issues.
