Most of the late model cars probably have the improved pump, so that might explain the lack of problems.
Oh so that's why when I took the WP off the SVT engine I bought to place my Metal one from my SE engine (which replaced the broken one) it was a different color impeller (it was tan), I was wondering about that. dammit, so I could have left it in then! Oh well, better safe then sorry.

Anyone need a Water pump...$20???? laugh
