Cut down stock 13B pump. Went in with a four inch long 1/2 dia end mill
and removed the old thermostat bypass passage partition. Could be done
with a die grinder. Welded in a new partition. Ignore the green marks. Save the old 
neck as it has a hose barb bead and weld that back on in the new position. Trick I
learned from Power Sport. 
I made a new one out of thick wall tubing before I learned that trick.
