Should I use a high performance oil pump or go with the stock type? I have developed a minor leak with the high performance oil pump currently installed which puddles in the garage. My mechanic says the stock oil pump performs as well for standard street use and has fewer diaphragms to fail and cause leaks. This is a slightly modified 1.8L with 93 mm pistons. Do I have to drop the engine to do the swap out? Thanks for your thoughts on this.

A stock oil pump can only leak from the paper gasket. You should be able to take it out on the car but the access is difficult.
Look at my signature for the paper gasket you need. |
