Need a performance oil pump?!

[Andrew Dahms]

Im doing a full top-to-bottom rebuild igh performance and I was wondering if i need a higher volume pump than stock? If so, where can I get one? (removed balance shafts and plan to be revving pretty high) I will also be adding a custom oil reserve to the bottom of the stock pan. Thanks for the help.

In short, No stock pump is more than fine.

In fact with the balance shafts removed and the oil passages blocked people sometimes find that they have too much oil pressure and need to port the relief valve to keep the oil pressure under control. This is with the stock pump.

I have put on a bunch of oil pumps when rebuilding these things, I have put on oem pumps and the topline pumps from sbr all without balanceshafts, the topline brand pump has better pressure than even the oem.
