Default Oil pump for twins?
I have a Gen IV 5.3 with forged internals. I’m going to be running twin turbos hoping to get around 1000hp was wondering if anyone has any oil pump recommendations?

My initial thought is melling 296. But bearing clearance, type of racing, and oil pan choice all play a role.

No reason you couldnt use a 296, but I'm sure most pumps would be fine anyway.
