I ran my weepy water pump until two weeks ago - then had it swapped out while my mechanic was installing my new head......

Bringing this one back from the dead....

Anybody have any sort of writeup or can give me something along those lines for water pump replacement without removing the supercharger as shown in this picture?

The water pump o-rings are leaking on my car and I am going to dive in myself and knock it out.

It's the same procedure to pull the front end and the intake tube, throttle body, etc. as for the supercharger replacement, you just don't pull the SC.
