Default Titan oil pumps

Got mine in the mail today.

If I ever wanted a 12000 rpm circletrack small block, I now have an oil pump to successfully pull that off. Till then I have rock solid reliable oil.

My picture hosting service is on the fritz so no picks but the manufacturer website is as follows.

I have the sportsman circle track pump. A steal at 165 bucks.

They are nice pumps and you got an awesome deal on it. I had the pro-series on my twin turbo SBC 427 and the adjustable oil pressure proved invaluable. You should never have to worry aboout insufficient oil volume, pressure, or cavitation.

Good now I just need to find an affordable oil pan. Most information says I could probably modify one to fit. So I might just go with like an L98 oil pan. maybe get the moroso weldup kick out kit.

The billet Pro-Series one is $735, but it is jewelry for your engine, not to mention a dang good oil pump.

How did you get a $400+ oil pump for $165?

Enquiring minds want to know.

something w/ more engine bay room than a vette, I'd guess a truck w/ the required hood height for that setup.
