No, I didn't do the water pump mod. It is on my list. I just went back with the stock water pump since the one I had had a lifetime warranty, and I was getting low on funds.

Yes I'm still running the stock oil pump and fuel system. I'm looking into the E Fuel and also the upgraded HPOP.
I'm trying to find out exactly what the upgraded HPOP does. Just trying to educate myself. I'm not one to start changing stuff on my truck just because some one says it's better.

I can go into specifics later if needed.
