I am in the process of moving my radiator to the rear for my track car, to give the car some more room in the engine bay.

I will probably keep the factory pump, as a fail safe, and add another one in the rear to assist with flow. I have not had much experience with these pump. Hear some good and bad news about Davies Craig.

Is this EWP115 Alloy (12V) Part No: 8040 pump any good?

What is the best water pump to use?

Thanks again

I highly recommend reading this build thread on gtr.co.uk, I believe they are running 2 Davies Craig pumps (no factory water pump) in a push pull arrangement with their rear rad arrangement.

Might even be some parts you might fancy :)

Yes I saw that thread recently. After fixing on the idea of putting up the radiator I googled around for Garage Saurus and found that thread.

I don't like the way they routed their air intake and exit. If you also read carefully they ran into problem with the 2 electric water pump...^_* I rather still stick with one mechanical pump as one of the fail safe methods ;)

The only thing I want from that car is the rear chromoly subframe. The front looks iffy.

Oh the electric power steering pump is sweet too

I have one of these but I'm still putting everything together with my build so I can't comment, but I have read the EWP115 is a lot better than the old model which was made out of some crappy plastic / composite material which used to crack frequently.
