Now that I think about it, I still have my stock oil pump. Should I be looking into getting a new oil pump or should the stock pump be good? I don't even know what kind of oil pump came on my '01 Z28. I see a lot of people with a ported LS6... What do you guys think?
Thanks!
Thanks!
The lift mentioned is with the 1.8's. The cam is ground on XE lobes. Lift is around .57x or so with 1.7's. Plenty of room with my springs good to .650.
Anyone know anything about the question regarding the heads?
