NO NO NO NO NO!!!!
do not use a metal impeller. Should the bearing start to fail it will grind your engine block

Get a Pierburg water pump who makes them for Porsche
They are under $200 from warehouse 33 auto . com. (Remove spaces) If you enter RENNLIST at the checkout you get a 10% discount as well.

While you are changing the wp, replace the thermostat with a low temp one

Get a new mechanic, one that actually knows about Porsche cars
