Electric motor to turn water pump
Racing at Woodburn will require a good cooling system. The return road and pit layout along with daytime only racing creates a lot of engine heat. A mild 318 will run in sportman class- 13.00 and slower. Unless you plan to twist the tach to 6000 keep the stock cooling system and alternator. If you plan to continue with a high performance small block, buy a moroso electric water pump or equivelent. I had the electric pump drive kit and had over heat problems thru the pits at woodburn. No problem with the electric pump. The wilder the cam the more heat problems you will experience. I would suggest consentrating on consistency and driving technique. Woodburn is a tough bunch to race with. Go to Madras they're easy. lol
