Has anyone tried the "New" water pump for Y-Block from Bob Drake Ford Reproductions? Part # B6C-8501-B Claims to be better design and new type ceramic seals? Are they any better?

NO , but I have been using Bob Drake water pumps for a flathead, along with many other guys and I gotta say aint too bad, no one complains about them..

Don't know about the quality of their products, but I've heard that some stuff they advertise isn't in stock & takes forever to come..

I have one on my '56 Fairlane. Went on great, had the same markings as the original one that I took off. Been on there for about 6 months now with no leaks.
One thing though I would recommend stripping the black paint off that they come in. I tried scuffing them up and that didn't help and my ford red engine paint has flaked off a little around the bypass tube.
