Any of the pumps w/ the anticavitation plate on the impeller work god. I've used both the Milodon and FlowKooler pumps w/ good results.
Plugging the bypass hole under the thermostat in the factory housings helps drop the temp also. Tap the hole for 3/8" NPT (no need to drill it), install a plug w/ a 1/8" hole drilled through it so it will bleed the air out. In the instrumented test I referenced on last week's post the housings with the open hole greatly outflowed the housing without the hole. Don't care what the flow test says. I can tell you that I, and everyone else I know that has done this modification, have seen around a 10° drop in temp b/c of blocking that hole.
