What type of water pump should I use for a weekend cruiser, 383, 360 hp so mild build, 5 speed and 3:91 gears. Added a 4 row 26" radiator and want to know should I use one like the photo below or is that not going to cool well at idle and low RPM. Or use one like stock with the fins.

thanks to all

Best and stay safe.

I would use the MP pump. I had one like in the pic. No need to say from who. It failed very soon after installing. The MP with flat blade impeller works very well on my 500 stroker.
Good luck

Often newer designs are not better , you can check with Roseville or probably get a stock replacement at a local parts store too
