Replacement Water Pump
I noticed my water pump is starting to let some coolant weep out in certain areas, so I'm going to tear it out and replace all cooling components (water pump, hoses, t-stat). Any recommendations on what kind of water pump to get? Right now, I'm just planning on getting a new Cardone unit and some Goodyear hoses. Thanks.

Those are probably good choices for the WP and hoses, but get a Robertshaw 333-192 t-stat. Don't buy the Auto Store universal replacement t-stat.

As long as you get a New waterpump, not a remanufactured one, you will be okay...

Is there anywhere that I can get a Robertshaw T-Stat without ordering it online? I checked out Flowkooler's website, and it looks a little too shady for me.

Silicone, just use it sparingly.

Prestone also makes a 333-192 thermostat. I have ordered twice from Flowkooler with no problems. However, some of their applications charts are incorrect. Make sure you know the diameter of the thermostat that you pull out. One of their charts shows a much larger diameter thermostat for the 351/400 than will actually fit.
