Hmm thats very interesting! Did it come in a Mopar box with actual (and correct) part numbers printed??
I assumed these guys were the real deal, but now you got me wondering if I should order from somewhere else instead.
If it was in Mopar packaging I would assume it has to be genuine otherwise thats a pretty serious counterfitting offense on their part....

It did come in Mopar packaging. I did a lot of research but came with nothing. No close dealership had pumps in stock that I could compare to so I had no proof of anything. Of course I emailed them, they said they source their parts from a local dealership.
Also have to keep in mind I have a '97 so that particular part is pretty old, there is a high possibility Mopar is sourcing parts. I'd tell you to buy from them just out of curiosity, but now I know I've planted the seed of doubt...

Mine leaked right at the top where the "all metal construction" was supposed to address the oem radiator leak issue. Very ironic in that I had to end up soldering it to fix something *it* was supposed to fix!

Mine keeps leaking where the tubes meet the upper tank on the passenger side. Had them soldered but still leak. What a waste ... My 1970 F-100 has a very old all metal radiator with no leaks. (knock on wood) I wish they still made quality parts. I may go back to OEM Radiator, cause all aluminum cost too much

I'm not too sure that Champion is USA made. I had one and it worked fine but I think it was an import...
This one is USA made..
