The only aftermarket water pump built WITHOUT the bypass feature that the stock pump has is the WEIAND aluminum 351c pump.
It can easily be modified to the stock configuration though. I have the Weiand pump and it is modified.
The Edelbrock is in the stock configuration and needs no further attention.
Personally I think there is too much Chevy think going on that caused this?
