I am building an LSA engine with the oil nozzles that cool the pistons, they have check valves that open at 43 psi. I already have a new SLP HD oil pump that I was going to use on my old LS6 before I sold it so I figured I would just use that on the LSA, but now I found out that GM uses a higher volume pump on the LSA to accomodate the oil squirters. I tried to call SLP but it's impossible to get anyone there. I suppose I will use the red spring but Im not sure this pump will be able to handle all 8 of the oil squirters when they open up. I just dont want to have to pull everything apart after finding out it cant handle the extra load.

Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.

If it was me ,I'd use a Melling high volume with high psi spring.

Thanks, but I was hoping this one would work, didnt really want to buy another one since I think I have had this one way too long to return. But better safe than sorry I suppose.
