Default LS6 ported oil pump.

Since I have a 2000 I will be installing a new oil pump. Is this a good choice?

At what post count do you become too good to answer questions? Damn man, didn't your mother ever tell you that if you dont have anything nice to say then not to say anything at all? lol

My car is a 00' Camaro SS and I will be installing a Ported LS6 oil pump. It is a good choice for your car.

Thanks. It's not like I'm a total newbie. I just never made the jump from ls1.com and stayed at z06vette.com for a lot of vette talk. I just didn't know if this pump had any quality control issues or what not. Thanks again. Oh, and I'm holding it down for us Haole's in Hawaii. hahaha

Awesome man. I lived there from 92-98. I miss it something fierce. I went to Cambell Industrial all the time with my neighbor and his brother. Herb and Leonard Barboza . If you ever run in to them, say their favorite haole boy Andy says hi!

I'd say you can't go wrong with a ported LS6 pump. Especially when you're swapping camshafts, take the extra 30 minutes to switch it out for that added peace of mind We have the TSP ported LS6 pumps ready to ship as well. Feel free, as always, to give us a call with any questions you might have

2000 is still the "old" pump.....01 was the start of the LS6 pumps. Just get a ported on. You will get more oil flow and insurrance.
