Just bought my first v drive (83 Sanger ski hydro) and am trying to get my jet boat motor installed in it and ready to run. I already changed the oil pan and timing chain cover but my neovane pump is a POS. I am running a small block chevy with a roller cam so setting end play is also a concern. The pump fittings are in the way of the blower belt too.
Can I run an electric water pump such as a CSI with a 10AN inlet? The boat has outboard steering with a 5/8" tube welded to the rudder for the pickup. I need to feed the engine and the intercooler with this pickup if my small block can make the boat blow the tail. Thanks

I have run a camper type water pump made by Jabsco. It has worked great for about five years. I have run it dry all kinds of bad stuff. It still works like NEW.... :rollside:
Here is a good thread to read i use a Magnaflo pump!

Thanks,
That thread from last year was very interesting. Now I wonder if a magnaflow will feed both the engine and the intercooler for a much neater plumbing job.
