Edelbrock Victor Pro Series And Circle Track Water Pumps

These competition water pumps are designed for circle track and endurance racing applications. They feature a revised impeller entry, a black anodized finish and .100" thicker rear cover for greater durability. Auxiliary water outlets ease fabrication of custom plumbing systems and auxiliary fittings are available as AN or NPT. These water pumps provide max cooling with equal distribution to both sides of the block within 1%. By eliminating hot spots, the engine produces optimum power from every cylinder without detonation and pre-ignition. Other features include billet hub and heavy-duty ball/roller bearings.

SMALL-BLOCK CHEVY - Standard Rotation
This NEW Victor Pro series water pump for small-block Chevrolet is designed for high output racing engines, especially dirt late model and circle track applications. It features a twopiece cartridge style design for easy maintenance and improved performance. The two-piece design features improved symmetrical flow paths resulting in increased flow and requiring less horsepower from the engine. A new aggressive 3.45" impeller with improved inlet and outlet port designs provides maximum cooling with equal distribution making this water pump highly efficient. All of this helps eliminate hot spots in the engine, producing optimum power from every cylinder. Finally, it features a -2 bleeder screw for quick coolant system bleeding. This pump will fit more aftermarket racing application pulley designs - compared to other pumps on the market. Dimension from block surface to hub is 5.80" and 1.03" from the block to the back of the water pump.

GM/LS SERIES - Standard Rotation
This pump fits all GM LS series engines, but will require the use of aftermarket competition brackets. It measures 6" from block surface to hub and features a relocated thermostat housing on the top. It is a standard clockwise rotation design to accommodate racers using a simplified accessory drive setup. It is primarily designed for use in racing applications and will require the use of longer than stock mounting bolts. Can be modified for street applications, but will not fit stock accessory brackets. Can not be used with a stock manifold, must be used with carbureted style manifolds.

OPTIMUM COOLING HIGH PERFORMANCE AND COMPETITION WATER PUMPS

Designed and built by Edelbrock, this dyno is set-up to test water pumps in a "real world" setting that simulates the conditions of an actual engine. The "coolant" in the dyno is pre-heated to reflect the actual temperature of the coolant in a running engine. The sensors collect flow numbers, temperature and pressure data as well as how much horsepower is required to turn the water pump. This gives us the complete picture about the efficiency of the water pump design.
Finally, the information is interpreted, recorded and stored by the Edelbrock QwikData data acquisition system. Using the QwikData system gives the engineer the capability of creating graphs and viewing the information in any number of ways. This testing is used to develop water pumps that will exceed the additional cooling system demands of a high performance engine. The chart below shows the flow data collected on our two Circle Track water pumps. Note the even distribution and amount of flow up to the high-rpm range.

WATER PUMP DYNO TESTS

Tests show that Edelbrock pumps deliver substantial flow as well as distributing water almost equally to both sides of the engine. Check out the numbers below...
