I'm looking to replace my pump with the Hardin SS pump. Called them but the Hardin SS pumps are backorder three weeks minimum. :faint2::faint2:

Hate to not be boating for another three plus weeks!!! Anyone know where I can get Hardin SS pump?

I did find one Hardin SS pump for my port motor. It's now installed and works great. I have noticed after running the boat hard the temp spike is only a few degrees and quickly returns to 160. With the OEM pumps i was getting a larger and longer temp spike!

Now I just need to find one for the other motor!!

Now, if there is evidence that this is a temp fix I will have to keep an eye on it. I'm just glad for the first time in many boating seasons I am starting out with good pressure on both motors.

Question for the Hardin Marine folks. Does that stainless steel replacement pump incorporate the quick drain valves of the factory unit? From the picture I don't see the dump valve?

If your pump requires the re-use of the original rear housing how does that address the potential scoring on that side? It would seem that your pump only addresses half (roughly) of the problem of the scored pumps.

My OEM pump had scoring in the main housing and the back plate. And the shim kits cover both sides.

Am I missing something?
