Is your stock pump going bad and you have a crossover sitting around or are you going to buy a crossover to replace a perfectly fine water pump?

What's advantage of removing the OEM pump and going crossover setup?

id like an answer too. merc has plenty of time invested in research and they use a circ. pump and thermostat. i have mine set up just like merc did and everything works perfectly. why change?

No performance gain. Just too much cooling headaches for mpi.

spend money on something better, like , but not limited to,strippers or fountain skanks. :)
