Does anyone have first hand experience with the new high efficiency 10?
blade water pump? What is a good source & approximate cost?

Eric:

Are you talking about something other than the original water pump?

There was an article about the proper water pump and pitfalls of
imposters in the GMC Motorhome Marketplace magazine a year or so ago.

I guess I need to breakdown & subscribe to GMCMM. I have not
seen the article. I have heard about an 8 blade TRW fan that was
recommended several years ago by Darrel Winsterfeldt.

Eric:

First you were talking "water pump". Now you say "fan".

Are you confused???? Sorry, but I'm poor at mind reading! I know, this
now gives everyone else a free shot, right?

If you are going to the trouble of replacing your cooling fan, look at
the serpentine belt system from Leigh Harrison. Go to Heinz's web site
(http://www.bytedesigns.com/gmc/serpinti1.htm) and look at it if you
aren't familiar with it.

P. S. Subscribing to GMCMM won't get you the article on water pumps, but
purchasing a back issue will.

Paul - yes I am confused - I was right the first time - WATER PUMP - is
there an 8 vane TRW pump available? And is it acceptable & what is a
source & cost

Eric:

Article I was referring to is found starting on p14 of the Jan 97 issue.

It only talks about a cast vs. stamped 6 paddle impeller.

It lists Ray Curtis at Eaton GMC and RV Sales, 800-764-3673 as a contact
for the water pumps. Perhaps you could call him and ask about your TRW
find and in turn let the rest of us know what he says.
