If you haven't gotten up yet look it up on Needswings he has the original OEM with a little wiring harness to hook it up, or of course you go to the dealer and if they have it pay the big bucks for it. whichever way you decide to go good luck. Jim
and just for information I have a stock factory pump that has been running with my V8, over a year now with absolutely no problems and no failures.
The information about these pumps seems to be all over the place. Some say the Johnson is more reliable and flows better, others say the flow rate is the same. Some say the Johnson can cause leaks, others say that's not the cause. After reading
https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...tercooler.html I feel fairly comfortable installing the Johnson CM30, mainly because I'm on a limited income and would rather not replace the I/C Pump every 15,000 miles. I wish that I knew which I/C Pump NeedsWings is selling... I think I may, at least, go ahead and separate the cooling systems at the same time though to prevent strain on the intercooler which hopefully will minimize the chance of the intercooler leaking. If you know something about this that I don't, which is likely, please let me know.
