Dod engines don't hold 8 quarts. The stock pump is designed to be sufficient for stock engines.
Most people don't realize they have oiling problems without a datalogger to show what the pressure is doing at high rpm , gear changes, launch and braking.
There has been gpm measurements done on this engines by Dart and schumannsand the # I saw were very similar and a stock ported pump dosnt meet those requirements.

so when you do a DOD delete do you change the oil pump cause its not DOD anymore??? Fact is the DOD puts out 35% more pressure then stock... 6quarts or 8quarts of oil why spend the money on a high dollar HV for 18%???

Do I need one? I am building a new stroker, rod and main bearing clearance is .0025. I bought a new standard volume high pressure Melling Select pump but now I am wondering if I need the high volume, high pressure.
If I run the High Volume do I need to change pans to run more oil?
