How would this pump compare in performance or what separates it from a Melling or a ported ls6 from one of the other sponsors?

Looks like a real good pump.

This pump has a 23% larger gerotor than an LS6 pumps. I can't compare it to a Melling.

Stock pressure unless you use our shim to bump it up by about 10psi.
