Just cut the stock tube down to where the height of the whipple tube sits. I never got a water pump replacement tube to go in the water pump, so I just cut down my stock one. No problems yet ~approx. 10,000 miles

try shoving a small rag into the pump past the area you will be cutting.. make sure the rag is wet (it will help grap the flakes of cut metal). take a hacksaw blade and cut the pipe approximatley 1.5 inches from the base of the pump. then slowly pull the rag out, it should catch anything.
