I got a $25 gift certificate from Summit. I'm thinking of replacing my aluminum belt driven water pump with an electric one. This used to be a racer only part, but the guys I talked to at SEMA said that they are excellent for the street. The biggest advantage is full water flow at idle and slow speeds. I guess there is some power gained by not having another belt driven acc. but I'm sure the alternator will have to work harder. Do you wire these things up like electric fans, on and off at a certain temperture, or on and off with the key. I guess I could wire it so that the fans and water pump can stay on after the engine is turned off. "Mr, your car is still running" is what my roomate back in the day heard over and over about his MGB.
