is it maybe possible ats port the pump aswell? i have heard of that being done to other engines oil pumps?
im curious on your opinion of why your block cracked?
i read a post that suggested our block crack due to nucleate boiling that occurs when the engine is shut off and the water become stagnate. you said yours cracked at the end of the reinforced casting which would disprove this argument. just curious on your opinion?
reason is i plan on running and electric water pump to try and prevent localized hot spots on shut down and therefore minimize the chance of cracking a block (gen 2). but it may not be needed if thats not the real problem
