I was told that im going to lose enough to notice, if i go to this conversion due to water flow and adding another belt and pump for the engine to drive.
I couldn't imagine there would be enough to notice, maybe something could be detected on a dyno, but it's probably a small amount, and only noticeable at wide open throttle.
I think when your get your engine running hotter you will gain power.<br />Unit for my boat does not require another pump but then it is a half system.
your not going to notice you may lose 1/2 to 1 hp runing a water pump,<br /><br />Fact: alternator requires more HP to run than a water pump<br /><br />Experiment: temorarily remove alternator belt and see if you notice your boat goes faster. You won't.<br /><br />CAUTION: don't run like this for long or your battery will go dead.
