: what is a flow cooler water pump? 70 SS 454 Jan 8th, 00, 5:14 PM what is a flow cooler water pump? ------------------ Rich Cocoa Beach, Fla Team Chevelle #380 wa3men@aol.com www.chevelles.com/showroom/70_SS_454.jpg (http://www.chevelles.com/showroom/70_SS_454.jpg) 68396 Jan 9th, 00, 7:05 PM Flow Cooler is the name brand of a modified waterpump. Most waterpumps have a stamped impeller with open areas between the blades. The Flow Cooler pumps have a plate fastened to the back of the impeller to seal off the open area and increase the efficiency of the impeller. It sounds like a good idea but I don't have any personal experience so I don't know if it works as well as advertised. Maybe someone who has tried one will make a post. MarkM Jan 9th, 00, 7:20 PM I tried one in the past on a relatively stock 350. I found no positive result, I'd say buy an edelbrock. Bob Bryan Jan 10th, 00, 3:39 AM I have one on my 68. It is a Chevy casting so it can't be too exotic I would think. Works O.K. but I don't think I would buy another one. Kind of pricey for what you are getting; just my opionion. ------------------ Bob (Creedmoor,N.C.) 65 Vette B&M Blown, Richmond 5-speed 68 Malibu B&M Blown, Turbo 350 10" converter | ||
