If pressure is what people are concerned about thinking it helps, why not just shim the spring on a stock LS6 pump and remove any cast flashing yourself vs buying a 200 "ported pump"?

Has anyone tested to see if there is actually a volume difference in these pumps? Blueprinting and closing up the tolerances to try and force more oil through the pump seems as if it could possibly cost a few HP and for those that pay $200 for 5 HP could be getting the short end if you ask me.

I just talked to a friend last night that reminded me that his 2nd pump that failed was one of these $160+ ported LS6 pumps. (I also think it's the one that jammed)

"Buy a $200 pump and loose 5 HP" ----------OUCH (just thinking)

Who is selling them for $200??


How did it jam? Doesn't matter how good the pump is, if something from the motor/oil jams it you are SOL.

I rounded off,
They range from what 150 average to 180 plus S&H?

When playing with it you could get it to jam, or slip by (if you will) the outer gear. As if the inner gear was a but to small (or the outer was to large).

I am not sure if this is normal but I would not think so, and I have never seen another one do it. If this IS normal, please let me know so I can ignore it if i ever see another one do it.

There were no knicks or gouges, no sighn of manual jamming we could see at all.

I got mine from TSP. They are normally $130, but I got it during one of their many specials and it was barely over $100.
