Hi, I'm building a street/strip 440 and need a bit of help on electric water pumps. I am turning it into a 511ci stroker motor and bought a top end kit that is capable of 620hp. I was looking at a Meziere 300 series electric water pump but am not sure if it's going to be the right fit for my car.
 
Welcome!
I agree with Ironbuilt put posts in one of those areas.
In my opinion you sure are likely to get as good results from a less expensive water pump setup.
 
welcome to FBBO from the Sierras, Sonora southeast of you

I run a proform 35-40gpm have no issues of overheating,
bigger tube/thicker MRE alum 22" rad
been on there since 2007, 100* + days etc., 180*-190* all day long
with electric fans too 16" 3000+cfm puller in a custom shroud
& a 13" 2900+cfm pusher, out front just in case,
everything ran thru Painless manual arming switches panel inside
& Boshe Relays, with a separate fuse panel for all engine/acc. electronics

you can see it all in different forums
the Resto-Mod & Pro-touring, Racers Hangout forums
& my garage too, among other threads about the very subject

good luck

Hey budnicks I am curious about your hose set up and what you are using to stop the pressure from blowing your hoses off of the inlets on the block?

stainless T band style clamps,
I have no or little if any, to no pressure issues ever
the hoses are A/N rubber with braided stainless steel outers
with an inner S/S coil to keep the shape
(my old engine when it got hot & cooled off
the lower hose would 'sort of collapse',
it was rare even, but I didn't want that issue)
even with the 19psi cap very rare even gets over 180-190*
even after hard beat runs, stable temps, very little pressure
in the cooling system
