you might do a search as I think this has been discussed before. I think there is mixed feelings. Some have been good, others that had some bolt locations off a little on the T-stat housing.

They may have corrected this issue by now. If I remember right, the return/replace policy has been very good on these housings.

Bolt holes on the T stat housing are off a bit as stated.

Some members have had to use a thick gasket on the pump to housing mounting for proper clearance as the impeller may hit the back of the housing.

I used the gasket that came with the combo and didnt have an issue.


I used to care but....... things have changed
