Since I am going to be replacing my water pump I figured I'd get a powermaster alternator and underdrive pulleys too.
Question1: Is there a particular underdrive pulley combo that works best with a powermaster 1-wire alternator?
Question2:Will a Higher flowing water pump free up any horse power? Any brands you guys would suggest?

Well I haven't heard too many good things about Powermaster..are you just wanting a new alternator?Or are you trying to upgrade to a 130amp alt? If your wanting to upgrade read this,
3G upgrade It might be an alternative you could be interested in..
As for water pumps,some biggger names I have seen recommended are ,Edelbrock,Mezier (sp?) and some swear by a good old original Ford brand...as for freeing up horsepower,I think the most you might get out of that is that a cooler running engine usually makes more power...Personally because of lack of money,I put in a parts store brand and haven't had any problems...I installed it along with a new parts store 3 row radiator,180* Tstat,heavy duty fan clutch and new hoses...My 92GT usually only rides a quarter up on the factory guage...and that's with 100* plus temps daily...rarely with lots of traffic and standing still,it will reacj about half way and immediately cool down once moving...I'm planning on doing the 3G upgrade so I can also get an electric fan down the road as well...
Also you can get everything you need in a kit from this place
PA Performance for the alt upgrade....
Hope some of this info helps you out...-Milt
