I will have the 800hp Griffin radiator, stock fans, and currently have an Meizere electric water pump. I think most of you guys would agree for HPDE and even Autox the EWP has to go. So if I go back to my stock water pump, will the upgraded radiator be enough to ensure adequate cooling? Is their a nicer pump that I should look into (something cost effective)?

I do not recall the benefits of the coating. I think it smoothed things a little to improve the flow a little bit. I did it more for looks. Same on the hard anodizing.

Mezieres must have went up a fair bit. I do not recall mine being anywhere near that much and the Canuck dollar sucked back then. I guess I sold it too cheap.

The hard anodizing on the pulley actually DOES help stop the belt from wearing a deep groove in the alloy pulley.

I know this as fact, since the original silver, non-anodized pulley had a DEEP groove worn into it (without even having that much tension on it-I have a Katech solid tensioner), and the anodized one they exchanged for me has NO groove whatsoever after ~3 years on the car.
