And I don't have to worry about it ever turning into a "milling machine" or confetti cannon!
You're running a V6???

Lol. My bad.. Naw, I'm running a little under powered, disaster prone, engineering nightmare, pile of trash flat 6 like all the rest of us. Haha.

Update on this old thread.... Well I had one of these GEBA pumps not fit into the block on Saturday!!! First I thought it was the gasket, but the pump alignment pins were actually 1.5mm too close together... I'd say Q.C. needs new calipers or some new glasses... Used a new LASO pump with the original plastic impeller and fit perfect!
