Pontiac V8 High-Flow Mechanical Water Pump - Black

• Style used in many passenger cars from '69-'79

TSP's high-flow mechanical water pumps provide that extra cooling power your high-performance engine demands. They are lightweight and flow at a rate up to 40% over stock pumps.

Lightweight Aluminum Housing

All mechanical water pumps from TSP are cast from lightweight A356 aluminum and heat-treated to T6 hardness. This not only provides strength, but aluminum works to manage heat far better than cast iron. They are available in a satin, polished, or chrome finish.
