I just saw a thread on a water pump failure and there was a comment about electric wp's being not a good choice due to their lack of longevity, intended mainly for drags and short runs.

I'm just about to install an electric pump in my Rover 3.5 conversion when I saw that, but before I do I'd like some input from those that have had real experience, good and bad with electric pumps. and while you're at it, throw some make and model out there.
