Water Pump: Transfer from Old to New Engine?
If you've been following my saga, I've just ordered a used engine with 41k miles to replace the one with 106k in my 2003 Boxster S.
Reviewing my service records, I see that the water pump was replaced just 13k miles and 23 months ago.
Is there value in moving the pump over from the old engine to the new? I'm trying to keep the total build cost down, but not if it doesn't make sense. I assume that it would need a new gasket, but is there a lot of labor involved in the swap before the new engine is installed? What is the recommended change frequency?
Thoughts?
