oil pump and rockers?
im going to get a new oil pump for my 408...is Stock ok to put back? or is there a better one out there. and rockers....who makes a good set...does anyone run
Scorpions? |
Katech ported and modified oil pump is the best available IMO. Harland Sharp bolt ons are very nice pieces. Ajustable rockers are a pain ijn the a$$ and you need valve cover spacers or a lot of custom clearancing.

I have Harland Sharp 1.7's on my truck with 15k on them that I will be selling if you're interested...
|
is there any difference between the ls6 pump and a stock truck pump?

This is my favorite gm pump here. http://www.lingenfelter.com/mm5/merc...egory_Code=C54
It's just like the melling pump but designed by gm. I used the low pressure relief spring in mine. 45psi hot idle and by 2K rpm's it's 60 psi, anything 3K or higher is 80psi. No shortage of oil pressure and I never have sucked the pan dry. I run it hard too...... |

Yup, I took the red one out and put the white one in that was supplied with the kit. The kit also comes with the truck o-ring ;)

The stock one is fine, but on a 408 you may end up with a bit less oil pressure. I recomend a stock oil pump from a D.O.D. motor. They have great pressure and more volume than the ported standard style pumps.
As for rockers I'd only recomend Yella Terra's if you don't run the stock one's. |
the dod pumps will work on my 5.3L?
