I'm sure there is BUT it might be small enough to not see it on the track.. but the elec pump sure helps when cooling between rounds.. between the elec pump and elec fan it only takes a few minutes running them to cool between the rounds

Any ET gains from the std high flow mechanical to an electric like the billet moroso ?
I have posted this on here before....
Both my brother and I both swapped from standard water pumps to the Moroso electric water pumps about a month apart apart a few years back.
He had a 360 powered 66 Dart. At the time the best the car had ever ran was 12.07, first time out with electric water pump( and electric fan) he went 11.98, in air that was no better( if as good) as when he ran his previous best of 12.07)
I noted almost the same gains making the same swap on a car that at the time was running high 10's.
My combo was more sorted out than his, but I noticed about an 8 or 9 hundreds difference as well, just like he did.
So both of our cars picked up almost a tenth by swapping to electric fans and water pumps, from how the cars were previously configured.
Zero doubt about the gains, they were notable and immediate.
Other things I did, like going aluminum drum and full roller on my tranny I saw nothing. Also saw zero difference swapping from 8.75 rear to Dana on consecutive weekends in identical air, no ET difference.
Pump and fans were night and day difference though 
Btw, these were not the little belt driven type deals, these are the standalone pumps like Meziere and such. The Moroso just happened to be a direct bolt on swap( still is)

I saw a small gain in the pump and a much larger one with getting rid of the mechanical fan.
So much that when running a local heads up street tire deal in the 90's I would put the mechanical stuff back on to knock some of the hit out to hook the car up.
Note. back then stock suspension meant stock and street tires were no where close to what we have now.

I agree, the fan is a bigger deal than the pump
