Took Da Bee for a rid this afternoon and guess what the lousy billit water nick sprung a leak again. This is like the third time. I'm going to pull it off in the morning and replace it with one of my old ugly, but reliable iron ones. Those purtty shinny ones are only good for show poodles.

I got the Napa water neck for $6 and change and used a pink Superformance gasket with it on my aluminum mopar pump housing. No sealant, no leaks.

I check/correct flatness of the sealing surface on a belt sander and install with a little bit of hardening sealer (Permatex #1) and common replacement gasket.

The base is thick and resists warping. The best part, I don't have to use any type of sealer on them so there's no clean up when removed.

minivan OP master M Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 9,066 Eugene, Oregon	Should qualify here that I am not looking for chrome or polished, just looking for a heavy billet or stainless that will not warp.. Not sure why I had the swivel parts in my mind, not at all what I want. Sure makes sense about the Oring design working well???

HOWEVER...... the housing was milled flat. Even brand new they are warped beyond belief
