Sea Water Pump question
I was just out on BAM looking for a Sea Water Pump impeller and wear plate. 
They have 2 listed; a "VST" and a "Fuel Cooled System" pump.
Question...How do I know which one is for my application?
Thanks in advance for your help.

If you are looking for seawater pump for Bravo, Merc only makes one now. One piece plastic housing and one wear plate. Bring a $100 bill because they are proud of there plastic.

Spring for the stainless unit, I just did, otherwise you will be replacing the impeller and housing every season. Besides if your intake gets plugged both are shot, much easier to carry a spare impeller.
