Hi I'm installing an oil cooler in the front bumper of my '73 914. It's got a 2.4L 4 that's got 160hp & 170ft lbs of torque. I want to install a high capcity oil pump to keep oil pressure respectable. Any advice on who sells a good one? Do I have to drop motor to install it, & is it a simple switch or do you have to modify anything to make it fit? Any advice would be great.

You need to consider this as a system and treat it holistically. You will need to size the pump by the length of your run - assuming you are using an external cooler and/or filter. You should consider adding the kit to stiffen up the bypass in the case and if using a filter adapter disable the ball/plunger bypass.
I'd consider 30mm the "norm" for this. 27mm pumps will probably be to small in the end. Aircooled.net is great to work with. Can't recommend them enough. |
