Wow, that looks very nice, how much trouble would it be to install one of these on an LS2 engine.

Perfect timing. Just so happens I'm changing out my oem ballancer for a powerbond pully next week. With oil circulating to the turbo's I'm about 10psi lower on op than I'd like to be. I hope this pump will help.

From memory: Remove 11mm screw from steering column. Pull power steering resavor/pump so you can loosen both lines from steering rack. Loosen aovenove steering rack over and out of way. Pull harmonic ballancer. Remove timing cover. Remove cam sprocket. Remove timing chain. Remove oil pump. It's a good amount of work but worth doing if you are planning on swapping-out your HB/pulley or timing chain (recomend Katech C5R) or cam swap.
