Can't go wrong with Katech or TSP blueprinted pumps. Pressure yield is all about bearing clearances and oil pump relief plunger spring pressure.

These are the only two that I use in my builds. I have used both and have had no issues with either. I use the Katech more often due to using their C5R chain so I order at the same time. Can't go wrong with either one.
