Default electric h20 pump vs. stock water pump?

i just ordered my custom c&r radiator from kevin (the man to ask for). i am going to have -20 an fitting welded on just for personal reasons.

i was wondering what the advantages and disadvantages of running an electric waterpump... i know that it does free up mechanical friction from the timing belt. did ne1 ever have problems with honda water pumps? the only thing that i could think of besides freeing up resistance, maybe higher flow rate, is that maybe the water pump will last longer than the oem?

btw, who makes the most reliable electric pump- meziere, golden.... tia. choiboi.

Electric water pumps are for off road cars, they last no longer than 2500 hours. so if this car is a DD street car is not a good idea. weekend car, then perhaps.
