by the looks of the huge coolant tank and absence of a radiator...it appears that the stock pump has quite the suction and lift...

The thing I saw was that the intake hose on the first test station is collapsed. That really proves the strength of the water pump and the engine itself since it can't be getting that much water. Love to see a modern engine manage that one.

There is a thread on the HAMB with about 8 or 10 pics of the OZ plant mosking mostly Mid 60's Valiants. I just cribed those as they showed the flatheads.

Oz shots start on page 14 and were posted by a guy called mopargus list his location as Austrailia. If you are not registered I can send him a PM with your email if you wanna go that way.

The transmission test bench was the place to be.
