my second water pump in 10,000 miles?
I have a noisy bearing in my water pump which has only lasted 10k on my 350 SBC.
I bought it in Australia for $100AUD which means its a $50 buck pump in the US. Guessing it's Chinese and want to spend the extra cash this time to get something that will last. Recommendations please. PS . Is anything actually made in the US these days? |

Stewart Stage 1 - Made in Michigan, been using them for 20 years with great results. One on a 454 lasted 120,000 miles before I sold the truck and was still working and was over 10 years old!

Edelbrock water pumps work last long as well.
