I like the ingenuity, but I think you'd be better off biting the bullet and installing a new pump, especially if you are paying for the labor. If you're doing it yourself and have the time, maybe it's worth it, but I'm afraid that you'll end up redoing the work in short order.

OP, I had a crack in the front of mine as well that I belive happened from overtorquing one of the bolts holding the cover to the metal housing from the factory. I bought a new one for $250 from a member on here that gets them at discount. I suggest you do the same because it's a PITA to replace. However, just make sure you pay attention when you tighten the waterpump to holding bracket bolts because there are two types of waterpumps that both work for our cars and one of the designs uses a slightly different flange that is thinner, requiring different bolts or they'll bottom out and crack.

I understand where and what it is.It makes no sense to spend 250$ or anything that high when someone potentially has the cover laying around.
Op pm me if you dont find one, I can get my hands on one most likely. |
