Electric water pump

Joshinator99 · 08-27-2022, 02:35 AM

Out of curiosity, is anyone running this pump:

It looks nice. Might be nice to have at the drag strip since you could run both this pump and the intercooler pump without needing to start the engine.

You seem to be on a roll...bolt that baby up and let us all know. EWP's were always worth some power on older gen 2 LT and LS engines. Not sure why it would be any different. The main difference with gen 5 LT is the direct injection.

I have one on my Gen 2 LT1. I've had good luck with it.

I’ll probably give this a try this winter when the car is under the knife (although I feel like it’s under the knife year round at this point lol) for more upgrades. Looks like a really nice piece and I’m liking the thought of running that pump with the car off at the track.

I checked into this Meziere pump a while back. With the new LT1 engine there are different belt driven pumps for different vehicles. Hence the inlet and outlet are different based upon the vehicle.

Unfortunately, what Meziere offers is for the racer and the hose locations do not match what we need on the Camaro. You'd need to get the Meziere swivel outlet, and then some special hoses.

If you look closely, the LT1 model is the same as the LSx race model.

I also suggest the relay kit Meziere makes for their water pumps. SKU WIK346.

I have a Meziere water pump on my 2006 GTO and enjoy it. Zero issues.

If you do a lot of drag racing the electric water pump can help cool down the engine between rounds.

Good info, thanks.

I did not try it. After @GTO_Gregory’s post it didn’t sound that fun anymore and I honestly forgot all about it. Someone needs to do it up on a Camaro and document the details to make it work. Maybe you @Trochoidal…?

Ah, I see this isn’t plug and play and needs some hose management. I wish I had a use for this setup because I’d be all over it. Let’s just say i can make parts from metal.

Make the parts already!

Follow-up.

I'm still waiting on my engine, so I'm no further along. I have the GenV Meziere LT1 full electric water pump in my hands, but it will be many months before I get the Meziere LT1 electric pump on the new engine and in the car.

For what it's worth, I picked up ONLY a Meziere electric motor for an early LT1 (1970-1972), but the bolt pattern of the Meziere electric motor is different from the early LT1 water pump. If you have a lathe and vertical mill you can make an adapter plate. While the early LT1 spins in the opposite direction of the GenV LT1 this issue can be resolved by reversing the DC power wires. I verified this fix with Meziere. This is possible.

Right now there is no direct bolt in electric water pump for a daily driver.
