Sticksdaman- yeah , it took me three different m60 pumps to find the combo I liked . Check the later posts and you'll see the housing I ended up using .

Nice! How are you routing your coolant and heater core lines ?
I've been thinking of running a 2nd electric water pump on these like the factory cars do is a good idea, I can't seem to burp the air out of my heater core .Mtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205

Here’s a short video of the thing idling. It’s going to get an exhaust at some point this week. I’m excited as this means that I’ll very soon be able to drive it.

I changed the oil to 20w-50 on Sunday and it seemed to quiet down a bit so I drove it around the block. I have some grinding somewhere that I'll have to pinpoint, but it drove pretty well other than that. On acceleration the belt squeaks which I'm guessing means the tensioner is bad as it's maxed out.
Also, I'm starting to think the coolant leak is coming from where the coolant tubes enter the crossover pipe- that's going to be fun to fix.
