Mocal vs Tilton oils cooler pumps, One better than the other? Options

[pcar916]

I'm adding a cooler and pump to my transmission. These two pumps are similar in specification and both companies have been around a long time.

Tilton: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TIL-40-524/

Mocal: http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/product...ial_Cooler_Pump

I know several of you run Jabsco Water Puppy pumps, but I see no advantage to it over the Mocal or Tilton.

Anyone out there with experience as to whether one is more reliable than the other?

I have been using the sporto pump for a couple of years now with no apparent adverse consequences; GE80 cams and VMax springs which have an open pressure of about 285 lbs. I think the pump has an internal pressure relief bypass from memory. I have also plumbed in a cartridge type filter to get rid of all the shiny bits and clutch material from the LSD which also has a pressure relief bypass in it. I am not using big revs though, about 7,200. No photos at the moment because i'm at work.

Interesting. I wonder how easy those pumps are to find. I'll put out a tendril or two while I'm in the design mode. Wouldn't life be good if it fit perfectly on the boss for the 993 PS pump and had the same cam drive specs?

Then again I like the idea of turning on an electric pump on to drain the system!
