505 Performance High Flow Water Pump

[ButtStripe]

So does anyone have any experience with this pump? Here is what I found interesting, both their site and the Hesco site have the EXACT same description of their pumps. I'm wondering if they are selling Hesco pumps under their shop?

A waste of money.

We cool 350-400 horsepower strokers on stock water pumps. If a stock water pump isn't getting the job done, something else is the problem, and a more powerful pump won't fix it.

What Cal said.

The "Tricky Dicky" pumps are more applicable when your spinning them up and have cavitation concerns.

Save the money and take your wife/girlfriend out to a dinner and movie.

You are thinking of the old flowkooler pump. The new one is a copy of Hesco's just cheaper. Billet impeller.

Also, more BS from 505.. "Another first" "we have replaced".. they didn't do anything. It is a flowkooler, even their part number and price suggests that.

also, having went on a search for a USA made water pump after my 3rd parts store "lifetime warranty" one.

they don't exist. Even the fancy billet one is a china pump with their fancy impeller bolted to it. I got that info straight from their tech support.

Yeah. 505 is a sketchy company. Would not do business with them.
