Default LS6 Oil pump

I've been having some problems with my 98 TA. The oil pressure has been somewhat low lately... in the 20-25ish range when in gear and fully warm. So i've decided that rather than wait for the pump to fail on me and tear the motor up, i've decided to buy an LS6 pump. Only question is where to buy it. I've heard that different ones are better than others. Alot of people are saying buy the SLP pump... but I was just going to go with the one from Texas Speed. What do you guys recommend? thanks!

Just get the lates version to get release. if i were you I go to a dealership and buy a new one, just ask for a oil pump for a 04 ZO6 vette. They go for around $119-$140 New.

I bought an LS6 pump from Dal @ VanDevere olds for like 80 bucks 2 or 3 years ago. I have a TSP ported and polished pump I bought last year for like $120, and I love it, great pressure when its hot or cold.
