Anyone see or hear of LBZ-LMM water pumps coming apart like the LLY's are at high RPM/HP? Not just leaks but impeller or shaft issues? Thanks for any input.

Casper has been running dual hi-perf waterpumps combined with the factory LBZ pump, a full sized radiator, and a 90 gallon reservoir tank.

Casper probably could have kept the Fukashima powerplants cool ...

I have seen a few impellers come off on stock lmm pumps. Like Tony said electric will fix that.

Four choices

You can turn the power down..
Maybe roll the dice..
Or install an electric pump..

LOL.. sorry i just had too...

Some have a little luck in welding or pining them and for some those never held up.

Trim down the fins on the pump should help it from starting to spin
