Electric
 
I have owned 2 CSR/CSI pumps for several years without any issues. Maybe I am just lucky.

The only one I had trouble with was a Moroso. It just leaked at the seal.

Electric fan & water pump Vs. stock pulleys, pump & fan would be a 3-10hp gain add few more hp if you use a WOT kill switch on the alternator to cancel out that increased parasitic loss.

Electric fan & pump Vs. under drive pulleys, flex fan & aftermarket pump would be too close to call maybe + few hp with a wot kill on alt.

I don't think I would ever feel confident driving far from home in a street car w/ electric pump unless I had a backup plan in case it failed.
