I would just say stay away from cheapies on ebay, and places like AutoZone. Places like Napa will have about the best you can get. Your only option will probably be some term in years warranty, or a little more for lifetime. I'd go with a lifetime if you can get it. I don't remember what I paid for my last one, sorry.

Sure, Autozone give a LIFETIME warrenty, but they sell junk! Do you really want to remove and replace 3 or 4 water pumps until you get one that lasts for more than a few weeks? Try Napa or Carquest, and see if you can find a NEW, not rebuilt pump. You get what you pay for!

I've heard good things about the Flowkooler. I didn't have the time to wait so I got one from Carquest. It's $60 and new. I don't remember the warranty.

Yep, lifetime warranty all right. Everytime your waterpump goes bad, they will replace it. How many times a year is too many to replace your waterpump?

After doing my water pump about 6 months ago, I can assure you I'm not looking forward to doing it again let alone doing it several times with $35 pumps, I don't care how many times Autozone would give me new ones.
