LS1 Oil Pump Recommendations?
I'm collecting parts for a head and cam swap, and since the oil pump gets touched, I'd like to replace it with an upgraded version that's blueprinted and possibly ported. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! TIA!

No one really blueprints it. They just take it apart, port it a little, and put it back together. If you have a dremel, spend $20 on Handzel's book, and $80 on a new pump from www.gmpartsdirect.com and do it yourself.

I get about 15 pounds more preasure at Idle, usually around 60 psi at cruise. Mine is from LPE. I was impressed with the preasure, I think it's well worth it!
