Review on Cardone Select 55 13126 Water Pump by Fred Griffin

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The picture is wrong!

Image shows improved round pulley assembly and OEM impeller. Inside the box was the old triangular pulley mount and a new type of impeller which I think is inferior as the blades aren't that long so probably won't pump the same amount of water per minute. I ordered an FMI 20282 premium water pump to get what I wanted as shown in this cardone picture. It was even a few dollars cheaper. Interestingly, the gasket that came with the Cardone pump was of higher quality, while the gasket that came with the FMI pump was cheaper. I used a Fel-Pro 35392 gasket for the best quality. Hard to get what you want these days!

Pros
  • Hubs and impellers are perfectly perpendicular to the bearing shaft to eliminate vibration.
Cons
  • socket required.
