How strong is the water pump?

[Guts]

I`m in the process (all but done) of mounting my radiator on the tray behind the cab. I`ve used a GQ patrol radiator which is about twice the size of the hilux one and have put the twin AU falcon thermos on it. What I want to know is will the standard water pump be ok for this? Remember it now has to push the water to the back of the cab on a single cab hilux.

I cant see it being a problem, just take a look at all the water cooled kombi conversions with the radiator mounted on a bull bar

MR2 also have waterpump at the rear and radiator at the front. You will have to be careful bleeding the system though. There is always an option of an electric waterpump overtop of the other like some race cars run. Cheers
