    I'm assuming if you don't want the hassle of modifications, go for the first one which says it's bog stock original

    That's what I was thinking, just hope it's the right one. I've had trouble with the wrong parts being sent before How were their shipping charges Mickey? Reasonable?

    Yeah, pretty good. We got $600 worth of stuff sent over (timing chain kit, clutch, wheel bearings, various suspension things) for like US $140 so I was pretty happy with that

    IIRC they only charge what they are charged, either way I found them very reasonable whenever I have ordered from them.

    But the next question is... why do you need the auxillary pump...
    The general consensus is let it cool down a little after flogging it and it's all good.

    Thanks guys, was thinking of doing the old by-pass. Maybe I'll try it out for a while and see how it goes before ordering the pump.

    I replaced mine last year. the difference is the electrical connector.



    make sure you get the right one or else you'd have to do some modding. I believe mine had two grooves.

    I'd go for the hawk mod too, looks good. though it may put stress on other parts.
