Isn't the LS4 pump used on DOD engines?
I'm not sure if they run at a different pressure to activate and deactivate the 8 lifters that are used for DOD.
I wouldn't use it unless you know for sure.

I was under the impression that the LS4 pump flowed more volume and similar pressure when compared to a ported/shimmed LS6.. but they could flow TOO much oil, and drain your pan before the oil could make it's way back down.
