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?

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 |
