The OptiFlo™ CR500 “phi” HV Impeller, another must-have item for your Honda CR500 Engine!
The “phi” impeller vanes are computer-designed using “Golden Ratio” proportions based on the CR500’s H2O pump housing.
This, as well as very close tolerances between impeller and housing, offers 1.5 average GPM more coolant flow along the entire RPM curve. The increased flow reduces the cycle time between the engine and the radiators, providing more adequate heat removal.
The overall benefit is lowering the engine temperature by up to 20°F over the competition’s impellers.
Also, the high efficiency of the “phi” Impeller frees horsepower that your engine is already making. Dyno testing showed up to 2.12 HP freed over a 1750 RPM range compared to the competition!
Remember, horsepower/RPM = heat. Preventing your engine from heat soak is the KEY to building and maintaining maximum engine performance. The more efficient the engine’s cooling system, the more heat (horsepower) it can handle.
Whether you’re racing Outlaw Karts, GNCC, Hill Climb, Sand Drags, Super Moto, or MX–railing tight single track, sand dunes, or just love the latest enhancement for your CR500.
Trust MSV Racing’s “phi” Impeller to help put you at the head of the pack! (Look at the pics and check out the data. No other CR500 parts company will show you the proof that they are the best. It’s the MSV Racing way!)
(Mino, Frank’s MX and AS3 are the SAME oversized impeller with a spacer)
NOTE: To ensure ease of installation, each impeller comes with an H2O pump cover gasket set (2 gaskets) for a seamless install.

still have single track overheating problems with Rekluse clutch. I’ve adjusted for minimal slipping and try to ride at higher rpm.

Did the MSV Racing impeller help with the overheating vs OEM impeller?

I installed the impeller and GEN II high flow elbow on my outlaw kart. Jason said most kart racers are seeing 10*f cooler with just the impeller and not sure what additional cooling the high flow elbow will provide. At the track I saw 20*f cooler running! We will now start leaning the jetting to pick up even more power.

Worth every penny. My 500 AF conversion didn’t like the smaller 250r radiators. Installed this kit and now it doesn’t overflow a drop of coolant (even riding in Mojave). Wasn’t sent the gaskets by accident and owner promptly sent me out the gaskets as soon as I called in. Talk about a great product backed by great customer service! Would highly recommend!

Awesome product, love it, noticeable difference in cooling, I’m running 250 radiators on my 500 conversion. This impeller made the difference in cooling while riding it in soft sand, was getting hot, now it’s staying in comfortable heat range.
Tom Iverson (verified owner) –
So glad Jason made this product. It should keep my hillclimb motors nice and cool

This impeller will make trail riding my CR500r so much nicer w/o having to be at Plus size RPM’s for cooling. It is not only well engineered but has been tested on the bench & road to prove it’s significant benefits.
Nick Swan (verified owner) –
A must have upgrade for anyone planning to race their CR500. My 1985 CR500 had the common water pump corrosion issue so I used to opportunity to upgrade the impeller since the original impeller was unusable. Noticed cooler temps and also felt like the motor gain some extra power.
