Went with the Ls6, not because I thought it was better, but cheaper and good enough.

Melling #10296 is the best oil pump IMO.

^ Melling is the best pump, between those other pumps ls6 pump is just fine. But if I really had to choose a pump it would be melling hands down.

I think the SLP pumps are melling pumps . Do a search on this board and I think there were several threads about this . I went with the SLP pump and my car idles with 65 lbs of oil pressure , so no complaints here !

I got an LPE (Lingefelter) pump from Ebay, was like $100 shipped or something. outflows the LS6 pump by 30% and comes with a the high pressure spring. LS1/LS6/LS2 are all the same pump from what i understand.

Melling pump flows 18% over stock
