Aluminum HV pump installed

Yea the face of the pump that the water neck bolts to had a real nice finish to it but the face of the water neck was crap, it looked like it was cut with a hack saw, so I took it to a friends machine shop, chucked it up on the lathe and took .010" off the face.

Wow, a lathe. Was it actually cast on center or did you have to do the rotate by hand, check clearance, etc. thing?

Good to know about the sealing surface of the pump. Who made it again? My memory sucks.

What was your impression of the machining quality on the Summit 727 pan? Good tip by the way in regards to draining.
