Is it necessary to pair an external (front) cooler with a HF oil pump or would a stock setup do the job?
Can the oil pump be removed without dropping the motor?

Thats where you can find the parts you need. I avoid the stock pump like the plague, even for a stock engine.
The "trick" is my Full Flow system with the modified 30mm TI oil pump. I run external coolers all the time with it. Its not showing up on the store right now for some reason- but it sells for 130.00
Its the same pump that feeds my 3 liter.

bought a 38mm geared pump.... more than enuff to do the job. |
When does a pump need to be clearanced for the cam bolts? What size pumps?

Not good.... Huge oil pumps do nothing but rob HP and create high oil temps (high pressure will bypass a portion of oil away from the cooler to keep from exploding it- this oil is NOT cooled, just returned to the sump)- more than 55 PSI simply is not needed, all the way to 9,000 RPM as centrifugal force really does its job of force feeding the rod journals at higher RPM.. Just enough is not too little and not too much |
Aaron, you forgot to mention longer studs from the case for the oil pump.
