The slower you go the more heat that transfers into the piece.
I would attach the ground close to where I was welding and as far away from the pump seal as possible. Then weld in small increments at a time and allow the pump to cool off in between.
I definitely like the idea of modding the pump better than using an adapter and playing musical pulley spacing.

Any plans on offering a pre-modified pump Aaron? I'm sure there's quite a market out there for those who'd prefer to run without the adapter.Originally Posted by JohnBradley
We modify the waterpump by welding it and the surfacing it real quick. Works good and doesnt have an additional gasket to worry about leaking.aaron

Is it possible to source that seals to rebuild a pump? I jus welded mines and i don't feel to safe using it with out making sure it wont leak.

does an evo 4 water pump fit that? I have one and it looks REALLY similar, Ill see if i have a pic on my computer
If the Evo 4 pump does fit, can we confirm it and get a mitsubishi part # associated with it?

welding? wow over kill.
Mine was done.. simple. 4g63 pump. and a thin piece of what was almost sheet metal between the pully and the pump to space the pully out. costs pennys and theres only one gasket.
Dont over complicate it.

Any updates with this? I'm guessing the stock 2.4 pump doesn't fit? The Evo 4 pump does? Any part numbers?
