Evo VIII water pump on a ix
So I searched through various threads on here looking for an answer for if the evo 8 water pump will work on the 9 without any issues and cannot come up with a clear answer. Some threads have said that the only differences is the mounting bracket and it will work out fine and others say that its a no go. So I am just wondering for people who have actually done this how has it held up? I would rather get a gates pump for 65 rather than 240 for OEM. Thanks in advance for the help!

The round flange that the water pump pulley bolts to came off the end of the water pump shaft. Really weird failure, the water pump wasn't locked up and rotated fine, the pulley with the flange attached just worked its way right off the shaft. I highly doubt its a common failure but I went ahead and got a new OEM pump anyways.
