I have there cover and pump. I already changed my cam since i had the cover. Made the swap real easy. It doesnt leak and the pump makes great oil pressure. And since you have a c5 you love the fact that you dont have to drop the rack and pinion. I run a LS2 chain with my ls1 sprocket. All you need a single row chain. A double row chain wont work i believe. Dont know why people run double rows. Never heard anyone breaking a single row.

Cold start up around 65-70 and hot over 40 if i remember correctly. The pump does come with 2 spring choices. A stockish spring and a high pressure spring.

it just an overpriced melling.
you can get the melling cheaper from summit,
and you don`t need the cover if you have a single roller chain.

the whole purpose of the cover is easy cam swaps..... at least for me anyways... the money I spend on it saves me the money on taking off the rack when I want to do a cam swap...
