I think I am the only one with an electric coolant pump.
I cant really do that on the truck. My power steering pump provides power to the hydroboost brake system. With a 5800lb truck you kind of need P/S.
I would like to do a clutched P/S pump sometime.
An electric P/S pump is possible but unlikely.
Plus I still plan on keeping the alternator, just at somepoint I will run it with no belt at least driving around town.
