Why yes Andy I have a hemi in the shop right now with a front drive and a belt driven dry sump. The water manifolds they had on it are "interesting" to say the least. Pretty sure that the way it is now that no water was circulating to the driver side with predictable results. I will be ordering some parts shortly. Save me some hassle.....
For the last project I worked I adapted a SB Mopar water pump to the front a big block. That setup provided great water flow without having the thermostat housing in the middle of things. It took some fab work, but it worked great and looked cool. The experts will tell you that you can't use a SB Mopar water pump on a big block but I did it.
