WOFTAM for a street car - normal water pump works perfectly don't try reinvent the wheel, spend the money elsewhere.
Make sure you electrically isolate that alloy radiator from the body of the car with rubber mounting or you'll eat a nice hole in it from electrolysis, if it becomes the return path to earth then you can kiss it goodbye, especially if its in an older car with an old wiring loom, corroded earths/high resistance joins everywhere.
