| Thats the issue. You take things to a personal level without contacting the person directly. You lash out. Not a smart move whether it be personal or not. How you handled the situation was a bit extreme and honestly could and should have been handled better than it was constructed. I'm not going to get into the nut swinging comment. As for replacing the oil pump on a build. its not required and honestly a waste of money when the pump thats been working just fine can be torn down, cleaned, improved, reassembled and put back into service. Much cheaper to go that route than to buy a new pump. I've said it as well as many others that an pump will only be bad if FOD goes through the assembly and destroys the gears and housing. Your name calling such as Fraud@EPR is a direct stab no matter how you personally view it. You must look outside the box in what you say on a public forum when it comes to calling someone a fraud. An advertising mishap that can/has been corrected was all that was needed. Your implicated fraud name stretches farther than you think to a lot of other ppl around this forum when I take care of all my customers one on one. I've had zero complaints thus far in doing any work for any customer. So just be careful how you word your statements as it carries farther than you may think. Nothing was dishonest about my advert. I conjoured flow not volume. Flow is a measurement over time/speed. Volume is the amount. There is a vast difference, you obviously know this. Granted most will see it as volume but overall I understand the concern in the efforts as to why it won't flow more VOLUME but I still feel that the work done regardless of what the rest of the oiling system is set at should yield more flow with the restrictions removed. its the same principle as porting heads or anything else that you try to gain more flow at a given value. All that is needed is a test to be done to see how much more the pump can flow not how much more it can pump volume wise. I'm willing to get a test done and go from there but for now I will keep my advertisement for the pumps as is (revised). The pumps are still guaranteed and come with a warranty unlike factory new. At best you get an improvement to the oil pump itself. Its a no brainer that removing restrictions will make any system more efficient. How much?...thats the riddle I'm working on. I do however have a new gear design drawn and at the gear grind to be done. A new back plate is made as well (billet). All will work in the stock housing as the gears are taller in deck height which should increase flow. If I go larger in diameter a new housing and everything will need to be engineered and executed. For now the taller gears should work well and be a good solution to the oiling system coupled with modifying the rest of the system with the crankshaft and block. FYI I have a new double oil squirter coming out as well that will spray a dual pattern of oil to the underside of the pistons for added cooling. And a new 9qt oil pan (brand new sheet metal) one thing at a time. The shop is priority at this point in time and before I can continue any new projects I must get the machines installed and setup properly to continue the avenue. (I didn't appreciate the antic comments when I posted the shop updates a few days ago) You must build a shop first before you put machines in. Not a good idea to have dirt/dust getting into the machines causing issues. This new shop will be a one stop center for nissan engine building and machining and development. Just like anything else it takes time.
