vx ss water pump stuffed

[jay_wr8]

hi flushed my radiator on the weekend and once i was done a couple of the pullies started screaming so i pulled the thermo fans back out to pin point exactly what pullies it was, i ordered the new pullies and when i was putting them on my water pump started leaking right in front of my eyes!!

so...what i need is a how to on replacing the water pump???

did a quick search but couldn't find anything, looked pretty straight forward until i seen the bolts under the throttle body going into the back of the pump.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Replacing the water pump on the LS1 is about a 20 minute job. All the bolts that hold it on go in from the front, there are none from the rear. Those bolts you see do not hold the pump on. But expect to pay between $300 - $400 for a water pump....

Thanks mate i got a pump today $250 with coolant and gasket seal, trade price. i had a look at the new pump and realised it would be easy as, the bolts i saw under the throttle body are just holding the plate on the back of the pump, i'l give it a go tomorrow, thanks for your help
