Paul,
With an eye toward improving the cooling on my p-port 20B, I ordered one
of these custom water pumps from Mazmart yesterday. They claim it will
not cavitate up to 10,000 rpm. So, it should be well within the
operating limits at 6000 - 7000 rpm. This looks even nicer than the 20B
impeller.

P.S. They will give a discount for group buys of 10 or more.

Great news Mark. I assume this is the RX8 version. Do they have
a 13B version.

Do you have the exact link? Is it a new RX8 part or a used
RX8 part. I can't find it on the site?
When the continuous power goes up the heating requirements
on the rotor housings also go up. It is a good idea to install
a rotor housing thermocouple. Similar to a cylinder head
temperature gage. You want to keep the temperature of the aluminum
under 500 F.
The old 13B water pump had a better rotor than the
new RX8 water pump.
Is your engine back together? Let us know
what the rotor housing thermocouple says.

Paul,
Yes, it looks like Mazmart does make a water pump for the 93-95 RX-7.
These are new pumps, not rebuilt. The link
is

No, my engine isn't back together yet. I plan on doing that right after
Christmas.
Mark
Did they mention what the quantity discount would be. If it is worth
it, are there 9 other souls that are interested???
