I agree w/ all that has already been said.  In addition... the water pump
has a carbon seal between the water and bearing sides.  This carbon seal
will tend to leak until it is worn in.  Quick way to seat the seal is to
spin the pump dry (b/4 you install it) for about 30 seconds.  I have a belt
driven bench grinder, and just turn it on and hold the pump pulley against
the belt.
