There isn't anyone here to delete squat except me. I'm a pretty easy going guy and have thick skin most of the time. I sure as hell won't be griping because you're not posting in a particular section.

I've got I believe the same pump on my car.. I can't remember hearing water noise, only the hmm of the electric motor. However I don't run a thermostat - just a restrictor and my block has a short fill - maybe that's the difference. The modifications to the pump sound reasonable. I can't visualize t...
