Yes there are electric water pumps but honestly you only need it for boosted and f/I setups. The factory water pump provides a great water flow for what it is designed to do. Unless you are running boosted applications you won't benefit from having one.

A MEZIERE electric water pump has an idler pulley so you still use the OE belt and route it the same. ![Heh](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/heh.gif)

Deysha, that link does not seem to work?
From what I hear this is a pretty good low cost mod, frees up about 10 HP and improves MPG, not bad for $200-300
