Re: Best oil pump replacement for cam install Believe it or not, mine was perfect for 45,000 miles, then on the morning of 9-11-01, I went out to goto work and I had NO pressure. I'm glad I caught it within 10 sec, shut the car off, tried again, 5 sec, no pressure, turned it off, called my dealer. 940.00 later, new oil pump, new water pump, NO engine damage, I'm now at 62,000 miles and it's right around 40psi at idle, a little lower when it's hot, but never less than 30psi.
I'm going to be doing a TR 220 cam soon and I think I'll stick a new Katech pump in just for piece of mind...
