Where do you buy your johnson pumps from? I think I am going to go that route since my flojet took a shit on me after a month 1/2.

Im no Ron Vogel....but the search says:

www.autoperformanceengineering.com


Its a handy dandy feature......

 

[zeez gtp]

what's a search ????

 

[imported_Ron Vogel]

I think it might be overkill with the 3/4" ends on it, but I got it from autoperformanceengineering.com.

There's probably a better (and cheaper) solution than a $125 pump for the little lines on the SS IC.

What are the size of the lines on there? I can take a look around at least. IIRC ZZP reccomends a 4 GPM pump to optimize it.

You may want to talk to Mike K. also, he's selling a 4 GPM pump that will work ok; and it's half the money. I know at least the ends offer good flexibility for fitting sizes.

thanks ron. i think the ends are 1/2 inch adapters that came on the flojet that i bought

mancow says Dr Joel Kaplan makes the best johnson pump

 

[Mike K]

Check out Grainger and give me a P/M. I can hook you up big time! (disregard the web pricing)

Will do, thanks cause I need to get one of these too...

...I am not getting a Flojet, so many people have experienced so many problems

 

[imported_Ron Vogel]

Well the problem with the flojet is the noise. Any impeller pump is going to be quieter than a diaphragm pump. Impellers suffer from not being self-priming, but as long as they are mounted low everything is good. Diaphragm pumps can be mounted anywhere, and can even be run dry, but since a piston has to be pushed back and fourth, they vibrate more and are a lot more noisy. Also remember, stay away from anything high pressure.

haha, i am going to stay away from the 20 gpm pump. that thing would probably blow the radiator out of my car

 

[rjaz gtp]

I think I will try out the W-Body's pump and see how that works...

...Zack maybe if you get that pump you can be a W-Body Street Team Member just like Ron

 

[zeez gtp]

haha, I am going to go tomorrow and pick one up.
