Title: Waterpump recommendations..
Post by Stallion on 10. Aug 2011 at 04:36

As the title says, after a waterpump but was thinking do i go to vx or there are other after market/OE parts which are good enough to use, would appreciate OOF'ers experiences. Thanks :y

I received a Quinton Hazel one with my cambelt etc package from BuyPartsBy.

It works fine but the ~~body of the pump where it mounts on the block was thinner than the std VX which meant that the VX bolts fould the impellor~~ - Edit The three pulley bolts fouled the fins on the body of the pumpeasily fixed with spacers under the bolt head on the pulley.

Mine was the same.

I used shorter bolts as I had some. Standard M6x20 if I remember correctly
