I'm a little shocked to find the water pump is around US$3,000 or 2,000 pounds. Does anyone know of alternatives?

The 4.0 I6 is the same platform as used in the Jaguar XJR Supercharged, I'd try getting a Jag pump...they should be similar.

The pump will fit, however the inlet / outlet are different or so I am led to believe.

It might be possible to adapt one to fit, or maybe swap the impellers over if that's the root cause of the fault.

You would probably be as well getting pipes to fit,
should not be a problem and cheaper.Not wishing to
be rude to last person to post,but would not think it is
the impeller.
Motor factors will sort out pipes.

Rebuilt waterpump option

My '97 i6 needed a new water pump. My mechanic found a company in the US midwest that rebuilds them. Once I get the contact info, I'll post
