• DESCRIPTION
The Edelbrock aluminum water pump is a heavy duty water pump for both street and racing applications. The
pump is externally the same as original equipment pumps to provide compatibility with all accessories and pulleys. It offers weight savings along with increased durability and cooling potential. An additional feature is the
threaded tab for a cam stop that can be used to pre-load the timing chain cover and limit camshaft forward
movement. #8815 is a reverse rotation water pump for 1984-92 Corvettes with serpentine drive belt. Not
for
LT-1 Corvettes.
Polished Aluminum Water Pump #8825 fits the same applications as #8815.
