Ford Big Block 429/460 High-Flow Electric Water Pump - Chrome

• 35 GPM pump flow helps move coolant more efficiently during idle and sustained driving conditions

• 12 V electric motor removes dependence on belt-driven water pump operation

• Chrome Aluminum housing helps resist corrosion while adding a cleaner engine bay appearance

• Includes mounting hardware and back housing components for a more complete installation setup

This Ford Big Block 429/460 High-Flow Electric Water Pump is designed for Ford 385-series V8 engines. Featuring a constant 35 GPM electric drive system, 8-vane anti-cavitation impeller, and flexible driver-side or passenger-side inlet configuration, it helps improve coolant circulation while reducing the parasitic drag associated with traditional belt-driven water pumps.

Electric Pump Operation
35 GPM flow helps maintain coolant movement when the vehicle is idling, cruising, or cooling down after a heat cycle.

Inlet Configuration
This electric water pump can be configured with either a driver-side or passenger-side lower radiator hose inlet, providing flexibility for a wide range of Ford 429 and 460 cooling system layouts. Verify hose routing and clearance before installation.

Installation Package
1.750 in. inlet, 1 outlet, back housing included, mounting hardware included.

Electrical Setup
12 V operation should be wired with proper relay protection, fuse sizing, and grounding for dependable pump performance.
