Water Pump help

What's a good choice for a water pump?????

The aftermarket choices are slim but which is one of the best ones to go with?

I just my my Supreme running again with it's new fuel system (photos soon) plumbed and NOT leaking. Got the car fired and saw the drips out the weep hole. Damned Murphy's Law strikes again.
At least I was able to take it out for the first time this year.

I always go for new. I replaced four in my lifetime and always bought the Master brand from the local parts store. They all had lifetime warranties but I never needed them...
I had a one year warranty rebuilt unit on my 72 when I bought it. It lasted 1 year 2 months and it dripped... It was replaced with a Master.

I agre with rob on that one . Every time I bought something with 1 year warrenty that was usually pushing it. I bought a lifetime muffler for my Astro and have had 3 free ones. I guess they figure you are not going to keep something fo 15 years. Lifetime everytime.
