VK56 Billet Water Pump Plate For Electric Conversions

The water inlet on the VK56 engine is integrated into the large thermostat housing. This plate replaces the stock mechanical water pump and provides a 16AN or 20AN inlet water line connection via an ORB fitting. It seals to the block with a captive O-ring that stays in place and offers a reusable, gasket-less solution. The plate features a -20 ORB SAE threaded port and includes a -16AN male fitting. This also allows you to upsize or downsize your coolant line without needing to replace the plate.

Each plate is CNC machined out of 1/2″ thick 6061-T6 aluminum and black. The AN to ORB fitting are also black anodized.
