Porting them shouldn't be too horribly difficult, most sponser's pumps are also shimmed for higher pressure.

I'm at a loss. What's wrong with stock LS1 oil pumps (except some of the faulty 98's)? At WOT I get 70psi when on a hot motor. LT1's and SBC's on the other hand, are lucky to get anything over 50psi on stock pressure springs.

Texas speed has a good one. Or Scoggin Dickey has a good one also. I wouldnt go into my engine just to change the oil pump unless its bad but if your changing cam or something you might as well.

With your good oil pressure, I would leave it alone.

I am running into the same thing, i want to install a cam, but dont want to be set back 120 bucks. So, would 72,000 miles be too much?

I'm curious about the pump from the LH6...the displacement on demand engine. It's suppossed to be a higher volume pump...shouldn't that help feed oil to a turbo?
