    I have not seen that before but it doesn't say what they did to "upgrade" it. Is it a higher flow rate? More pressure? Some more details would be nice.

    I'm also not sure if the oil pump is a weak point on these cars. I thought they were pretty robust but others should be able to weigh in on that.

    I inquired and their response was "upgraded internal parts".

    I agree, I don't think the oil pump is an issue.

    Having said that, looking at my oil pump, it has a good amount of backlash. I see a few small, very minor, chips in a few of the vanes too. These things are not cheap at all and if I'm going to buy a new one, may as well upgrade is what I'm thinking.

    Interesting!

    How do you like it?

    Do you have an oil pressure gauge - what's the pressure you're seeing?

    Have you truly noticed any sound or operational changes on the engine?

    Dang, that's a steep price for one

    Motor isn’t running yet, but very soon. I’ll let you know as soon as I’ve got the car running what I think. Hopefully it will be all done and back together in the next two weeks.

    No. No pics. But it looked as their web site shows. It didn’t take long to get it. Within a couple of weeks. I actually bought it well over a year ago though. lol
