Default Dual Water Outlet Mod Walbro h20 pump

I tried searching, I can't seem to remember how the post was labeled... [&o] Does anyone have a link or the info on how to mod the Walbro WIP-1 pump to add the second water outlet/output? For anyone who's done the mod, does adding the second outlet/output decrease the output from the primary/original outlet?

Thanks,
MKM

I do remember a post like that, but all you have to do is drill #25 hole where the other arrow is that is not used and tap with a 10-24 tap. You can do inlet and outlet with no problem.

aha! a picture really is a thousand words... so you actually added 1 additional inlet and outlet, vs. just adding another outlet. Do you happen to have a side profile shot of the pump so I can see height wise where you tapped it?


Thanks!![8D]

Quick update- I tested a new WIP-1 pump with this mod and it works great! Plenty of water from both outputs. Makes me wonder why no one offers a pump already setup like this? Anyway thanks for the help/pics! [8D]
