| I'm talking about because I don't build engines for a living. In that context, contacting you directly would have been pointless and a waste of time. In the end, it took public pressure from your customer base to change. :An advertising mishap that can/has been corrected was all that was needed. Come on man. Mishap? Really? There was no mishap about it. I called you out on this several weeks ago, and you did nothing about it. It only became a "mishap" when your customer base became aware of your shenanigans. 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. Conduct your business properly and you won't be called a fraud. Simple enough, right? :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. Don't insult my intelligence. Pumps are typically measured in terms of volumetric flowrate. In that context, "high flow" and "high volume" mean the same thing. Your advert was absolutely dishonest. Apparently I'm not the only one that feels this way. 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. No, it isn't the same principle because air is compressible and oil is not. Removing the restrictions in a positive displacement pump, pumping an incompressible fluid will only impact the discharge pressure, and will not impact the volumetric flow rate. 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). Honestly I don't care if you test it with the revised advertisement. I don't expect you to find a measureable difference in flow rate anyways
: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'm not disputing the value of the pump, in that it works at least as well as stock, but cheaper. 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. Keep in mind that a high volume oil pump is pointless unless you ditch the bypass oil cooler system, otherwise you're just sending the extra volume to the oil cooler and not the engine bearings. A high volume pump in an otherwise stock TT oiling system is a waste of money. :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. Sounds like a worthwhile product 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. Good luck on your shop. I honestly hope it all works out for you.
