Which Oil Pump?
I'm going to order a new oil pump soon and I'm wondering which one I should get. Scoggin-Dickeys ported/bluprinted/coated Melling pump, ot Texas Speeds ported/shimmed LS6 oil pump? Which one do you guys have, and what's you oil psi cold/hot?
Thanks

MELLING 10296 !
Just put mine in last weekend with my cam install. Runs about 70psi cold and will settle at about 50-55 when fully warm.
You sound exactly in the same position I was about 2 months ago....
I ended up going with the melling because of their history. I'm sure Texas speed and scoggin make GREAT stuff (And I know they do because I run their parts). But when it comes down to oil pumps specifically melling knows best.
If I want a cam/heads/ various performance stuff I'll call TSP.
If I want great parts/ crate engines/ etc.. I'll call scoggin.
(Again- thats not to say TSP/Scoggin don't make great stuff!!!!)
