I was going to run one on my T/A one time but a few people talked me out of it. They said it wouldn't last on a street driven car. I never tried it but would be willing to jump in line if it works for you. lol!

I have have one on my LT1 motor. Which is highly recommended on that particular motor cause the Distributor is directly behind the WP, and if the WP leak if ruins the dist. But I would say they're good. Less accessories on the front of the motor being ran by belt mean a little bit more power.

Make sure you use a good sized altinator. The electric water pump will put more of a strain on the electrical system.
