Randy,

I know nothing of Annex Technik. Does it look beefy?

On the GMB, what you describe is not unheard of, and it would have only been a matter of time before it started to leak coolant. I can't claim to have some data/records as for miles until failure. I can assume knowing you to be meticulous that the belts were perfectly tensioned. I do have a couple questions: Do you have the normal fan set up or have you removed the engine driven fan? (I think a good beni of electric fan is less stress on wp shaft, but I could be full of it on this theory) And, what kind of coolant were you running?
