An electric water pump, 2.5 lbs.  I wonder if two of these (redundancy)
would be a good replacement for the stock setup?  Any takers?

Heavy. Bigger alternator. Assume for the moment the regular water pump
requires 3 HP. 746 watts per hp. 2238 watts. P = E * I

2238 watts / 12 volts = 186 AMPS!!!! 100% efficiency. Probably
only about 80% efficiency so even more AMPS.

agreed that I would send them email and they would try to find the answers
to those questions. I am waiting for their reply, and will post when they do.
