Weiand built its Action +Plus line around a lightweight aluminum housing that it says is 30 to 50 percent lighter than stock cast-iron pumps. The pumps were redesigned for performance and use Weiand's twisted snout look. They carry a premium-quality bearing and seal that Weiand rates at twice the load capacity of stock pumps. An exclusive housing counterbore is designed to keep the bearing from walking out. The bracket bosses and water connections are designed to fit popular street applications.
