Yeah, I clicked on the link to fwd performance and the search feature wasn't working. I didn't like the layout of the page. The windows-like menu on the left was arranged in a counter-intuitive sort of way. After clicking around I found what I needed. After a few other people urged me to have patience. Looks like they have good parts but whoever made that webpage for them is probably costing them some business. I gave up after 3 tries on 3 occasions. As far as the want of a high volume oil pump. I have a roller cam in a slider head that has the extra oil passages in the caps. After installing this cam my oil pressure dropped 20 psi in a totally new motor (not worn crank bearings etc). I hooked up an oil cooler and pressure droppped to 10 psi. So i now disconnected the oil cooler to get the psi up and want higher volume in hopes that this offsets some of the problem . I think i may have a stock cam in a head that has been oversized somehow. It just occured to me so I'll have to look into it. not sure ho that could have happened it was all new parts.
>>> Hmm, doesn't look too hard to me to find: http://www.fwdperformance.com/store/Category.asp?IDCatalog=78&txtCatalog=Camshafts They also have injectors, etc. As does turbosunleashed.com or forwardmotioninc.com There was a wonderful page with many of the basic camshaft specs, but fwdmopar.com (where it was hosted apparently went away sometime between april and august. If anyone has that page saved or knows where its hosted now, could you share it with us all? OR better yet, is Dennis Doza II around to speak on it (it was his page) I'm not sure why you feel you need a high volume pump, can you explain the reasoning why you need it? The factory already puts restrictors in the line to the head to keep oil out of the cylinder head and they only ran a 1/4" feed line to the turbo because they were afraid the 1/8" line would snap off too easily. Personally, I feel that controlling the foaming and overheating of the existing oil is more important before moving up to a larger oil pump. Adding a crank scraper and/or windage tray to the pan will help keep more oil near the pickup and reduce parasitic drag on the motor. Porting the oil pump inlet on the block to match the outlet of the block will help reduce a restriction in the oiling system. Adding baffles or one-way gates to the oil pan will help hold the oil near the pickup when cornering. Finally an oil cooler will help reduce the likely hood of the oil breaking down under extreme pressure and heat. Good luck in the search Stefan --------------------------------- All-new Yahoo!
