These appear to be sized for NASCAR HP levels
of around 600 HP.

I guess one could adapt one of these
pumps but surely there is something smaller
out there that would work. Anybody have any
other ideas.

Stewart vs. Edelbrock Comparison

 

Recent laboratory testing revealed the latest design of the Stewart Stage 4 DRV-8 Chevrolet small block water pump compared to the pump Edelbrock  offers:

  • 93% more pressure @ 6,000 RPM
  • 39% more flow @ 6,000 RPM
  • 60% less horsepower loss @ 100 GPM

Stewart is the overwhelming choice of NASACAR Winston Cup teams. In fact, Winston cup engine builders choose the Stewart design over Edelbrock 42 to 1.

Stewart Stage 1 pumps, which cost only $69.95 mail order, also out perform the Edelbrock. The same laboratory tests proved the Stewart Stage 1 water pump for the Chevrolet small block compared to the Edelbrock pump offers:

  • 67% more pressure @ 6,000 RPM
  • 29% more flow @ 6,000 RPM
  • 47% less horsepower loss @ 100 GPM

Stewart pumps have a 1 year guarantee and are serial numbered to assure properly documented quality control. Edelbrock pumps are not serial numbered and have no advertised guarantee.
