Does anyone have first hand experience with the Accusump? Kinda weary just going off what their website says. Wana make sure that its a reliable part. Would it even be needed if I purchased the new Moroso pan that has more capacity and comes with a new pick up that's relocated to the rear of the pan?
How 'bout the oil pump. I have the modified LS6 from Thunder Racing. I believe its just a stock pump that they disassemble, clean up all the flashings/port it, resassemble, and double check clearances. Should I stick with it or going with a different pump (IE: Melling)?

SMOKIN01TA, I know you're big on Thunder Racing and so am I. I figured you'd at least have the ported/blueprinted pump they sell.
When do you guys think its necessary to have an aftermarket pump such as the Melling that is listed on Thunder Racing's website for more pressure? I just want to be sure that I don't ever have this problem again. The Melling pump and the Moroso pan are 2 things I'm looking hard at.
