Meziere Electric Water Pump

I know nothing
What's the deal with the Meziere Electric Water Pumps. Are they worth the money? Where's the best place to buy one? Any issues? How long do they last? Thanks, Curt
 
No, why not go with an electric oil pump? How about an electric engine?

Any minor "benefit" is far out weighed by costs and a lack of durability.
 
You'll get a lot of pro's and cons. IMO, save the money. If they fail then you are dead in the water, a mechanical waterpump even when the seal fails will still get you home. Not only will you have to spend nearly $400 for one, but then you'll have to wire it up and install a LED on the dash to be certain its even working. All that for 10hp. A EMP waterpump will free up horsepower and costs less then half for the Meziere with less hassles or risk.
 
Thanks for the responses. I do have the Stewart Warner EMP water pump, so I think I'll stick with that.
 
I have 2 years on mine... no problems.

7 years on the mach1, no problems. Then again, it hardly ever moved in the last 4 years or so.

The benefits, beside the hp freed up are these - better cooling in stop and go traffic as it's not based on RPM, it flows constant. This was noticeable in Arizona heat. And if you're so inclined, you can wire switches to turn it and the fans on in the pits at the track to cool down between passes. Also, I see it as an alternative to underdrive pulleys, with the added benefit that you don't have to set the idle higher and the alternator wont struggle to supply the electricity at idle.
