Edelbrock 8804 Long-Style Aluminum Water Pump for Ford 4.6L V8

Vehicle Fitment

• Ford 4.6 L V8 (single-overhead-cam 2-valve 4.6L engines) - commonly found in 1996-2001 Mustang GT/Cobra and 2005-2010 Mustang GT (long-style water pump applications).

Features

• High-flow mechanical water pump designed for enhanced cooling performance under street and performance use
• Aluminum housing with satin/as-cast finish - lightweight and resistant to corrosion
• Oversized impeller and optimized internal passages for maximum coolant flow and pressure
• Balanced coolant distribution to both sides of the block for uniform cooling performance
• Long-style shaft/hub design - ideal for applications that require greater clearance or extended pulley spacing
• Compatible with stock or aftermarket serpentine-belt drive systems (check pulley alignment)
• Smooth internal flow path - reduces turbulence, cavitation, and improves cooling efficiency in high-output engines
• Street or high-performance rated - suitable for daily drivers, performance builds, or light race use

Specifications

• Part Number: 8804
• Engine Compatibility: Ford 4.6 L V8 (SOHC 2-valve) - standard block and head configuration as in 1996-2001 Mustang GT/Cobra and 2005-2010 Mustang GT
• Pump Type: Mechanical water pump
• Impeller: Powdered-metal impeller optimized for high flow
• Housing Material: Aluminum (satin/as-cast finish)
• Shaft Style: Long-style (long-shaft/hub - for clearance and certain serpentine setups)
• Cooling Capacity: Enhanced over stock - designed to provide maximum coolant flow under load
• Drive Type: Belt-driven (serpentine / stock belt configuration) - pulleys must align with long-style design
• Finish: Satin / natural cast aluminum

Included Components

• 1x Water pump assembly (long-style, aluminum housing, mechanical pump)
• Mounting flange and casting - ready for direct bolt-on installation (gaskets/seals and belt/pulley hardware must be reused or obtained separately)

Product Description

The Edelbrock 8804 long-style aluminum water pump is engineered to replace the stock pump on Ford 4.6 L V8 engines (common in 1996-01 Mustang GT/Cobra and 2005-10 Mustang GT applications) to deliver improved coolant flow, better thermal management, and enhanced reliability - especially under high-performance or sustained load conditions. Its oversized impeller and carefully designed internal passages maximize coolant circulation and pressure, helping prevent overheating in street-rods, performance builds, or hard-driving scenarios. The aluminum housing reduces weight compared to cast-iron alternatives and resists corrosion over time, extending service life and reducing maintenance needs.

The "long-style" shaft/pulley design gives additional clearance and flexibility for belt routing or aftermarket accessory drives, which can be necessary in modified or custom engine builds. Because it is a mechanical pump with optimized internal flow, it's well-suited for engines subject to higher cooling demand (e.g. performance upgrades, forced induction, towing, or high-RPM use). To ensure correct operation, verify belt/pulley alignment, reuse or replace gaskets and seals, and ensure your cooling system (radiator, hoses, thermostat) is in good condition before installation.
