Re: Oil Pump ? You'll get varying responses to this one. I didn't replace mine. I, also, had 50K at the cam swap but chose to leave well enough alone. It's your call. Some will say replace it, others wont. Get ready for the responses! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Oil Pump ? I put a cam in my car and still have the stock oil pump in there. I only have 10,000 miles on it and I have a 2001 model.
I have heard that the oil pump problems were resolved by GM on the later 2000 models. So, hopefully, the 2001's & 02's should be fine.
