Oil pumps ? When I do my cam, I was going to replace the oil pump since I've heard the 98's are notorious for going out. Is there a difference between Katech's and ARE's? I know katech is the ls6 thats been deburred, blue printed etc. Is the ARE basically the same? Just trying to figure out which one I should go with.
thanks.
