You can pickup a oil pump kit at any auto store. There 16-18 bucks.
Comes with new gears.springs.gaskets.and spring keeper.

cool thanks, what could i do to make the stock oil pump put out a little more psi? is a stiffer spring or an extra washer to shim it over a hair an 0ption?

A 'biggie oil filter kit' will get you a few PSI across the board. If you want to raise your upper RPM pressure you can shim the stock spring or install a stiffer one. The best thing to do if you have the cover off is to take it apart, do a couple flow mods, port it, hand lap the filter adapter, set the end clearances and put it back together.

And whatever you do, you DO NOT have to have those longer gears.

Brad penn 5- 30 with a half bottle of zdpp

Try 15w40 rotella. I've run it for 10 years. No need for zddp additive. Flat tapped camed motor it will bump up your oil pressure
My roller motor I use 10w30 synthetic with a bottle of stp blue (aka zddp)

i ended up with the 980 springs, gonna leave oil pump set up alone i guess.. It does have a dbl roller already installed.

 

[buickGN3:16]
