[DeTomaso] please look at this pic of a water pump and tell me if it has a bypass hole

[Pantdino]

Thanks, Asa Jay. That's what I needed to see.

Am I right in thinking the space between the impeller and the wall of the cavity it spins in is awfully large on the FlowKooler pump compared to the Edelbrock one?

Won't that result in less efficient pumping because the coolant can cross back to the intake side?

That and the "interference fit" issue with the FlowKooler makes me think the Edelbrock is the better choice, albeit more expensive.

Start here:
http://teampanteraracing.com/index.php?option=com_g2bridge&view=gallery&Itemid=57&g2_itemId=3042
      
      and look at -all- the photos, and -all- the descriptions.  If you      don't understand after reading and looking at all that, just let      me know.
      
      After 30 years... this is exactly what Tommy should already know.

Is the bypass the inset round opening            adjacent to the male outlet / hose barb, the end of which            you can see on the "inside" view of the pump?  Or is it            somewhere else?
