 I take it that none of this is applicable to the 13b block.

 You are right. You may need to cut down the 2nd gen 13B pump
 to fit under the cowl so we have a different procedure
 for doing that. It also increases the water flow
 by reducing some restrictions in the plumbing. Let me
 know if you want to see that.

 BTW Jeff, I had another idea for the RX8 version and that is
 adding a filler neck for a stock 30 psi pressure cap.

 We have had trouble with the welded versions in the past.

Paul, can a Renesis front cover/water pump assembly be used on an older
13b?

Everett

Yes I think it can. As I recall somebody did it.

To All,
If my memory is correct, I recall that some one did mount a renesis front
cover to a 13B. I thought about doing the
same thing, but it was more work than I wanted to do. I did, however, buy a
renesis front cover ( for $177.00 )
and cut out the water-pump as well as remove the
alternator boss off the top. after seperating the pump
from the front cover, I took a die-grinder and dressed
the pump housing so that it looks as though it was made
that way. It is not hard; it just takes a little time.

I will be glad to provide more details.
