Default Pump Rotation Direction

Verify that the flow/rotation direction for the new pump are the same as the original. If the pump was designed for a serpentine system, it will rotate in the opposite direction to provide flow. I was talking with someone at a car show who had installed a crate motor that came without the pump, and he indeed had installed the wrong pump and had overheating problems. After talking with the supplier, he installed the correct pump and the problem went away.
