My car is going to be a roadrace(track) car, there are benefits of both mechanical and electric pump setups but I need to know the limits and characteristics of the stock pump before I can go specing my electric pump

Unfortunately, I don't have flow calcs for the oem water pump. If you do find them please post them up here!
I can tell you that the oem water pump + aftermarket radiator (eg. PWR or Fluidyne) + oem fan & shroud is a combo that has been roadraced VERY successfully, over 700rwhp with no overheating. If you're only going to be BPU+++, I can tell you 100% for sure that the oem water pump will not hold you back. Btw, be sure to use only distilled water and water wetter (no coolant) for optimal cooling in the summer.
