I just run a pressurized oil reservoir to maintain oil pressure and prime the engine before every start up. Like you said, "every little bit helps".

Im running a LSX block with roller cam bearings so I went with a Melling low volume/high pressure. Suprised it wasnt mentioned in your video. Nice info regardless.

Now once the high volume oil pump is in, is that sump plate needed at the bottom of the plan to keep oil in the pan from being sucked dry? What is the better ones to use please?

01 C5 Corvette doing a stage 3 cam just a streetable car which oil pump would you recommend melling 10295,10296 or neither ? Thanks !

I have a whippled supercharger on LS3 what pump do need?

I've been recommended to be running a CTSV V2 oil pump for my DOD, what are your thoughts on this? Also, 2nd the comment about the volumes. This guy's breathing starts getting a bit old after a few minutes. Mic placement should be adjusted?

Yeah, new mic setup, will be making adjustments.

Would a M295 pump have more volume over my stock pump its a 2002 LQ9

I’m running the m355 in my gen-3 with BTR Stage2 truck cam and Headers only. I went with it due to a lot of off road slow low rpm stuff but also a daily driver. Do you see any concern at all. ??

We recommend keeping the higher volume pump in non-performance applications when doing a DOD delete.

That can be quite the toss-up, have you considered upgrading to an external oil cooler?

Does a high volume oil pump cost or gain you any hp?

A higher volume oil pump will require more effort to turn, but we don't have any data on if it will cost you HP or not.

I'll throw some info out there 1 of the biggest issue with the LS oil pump is the fact it spins to fast causing cavitation old small block spun at half rpm. Need to develop a pump that will put out the pressure and volume but reduce the pump speed. That's for all 6500 to 8000 rpm guys 😂

Awesome vids. Love watching them But why do I always feel out of breath when watching lol.. that mic is extra sensitive always sounds like you are on a stair master while talking. All fun aside great info !

The breathing kills me

Y'all should work on the audio levels. Its annoying hearing every breath he takes

There is no hope, it's futile to tell people about this, they are already set in their ways. Melling the designer and manufacturer of these pumps keeps telling people "Guys HV and HVHP pumps have special use cases on LS, like VVT, AFM / DOD, high bearing clearances, oil coolers....etc." they tell you straight up if you have LS builds without those things, then you should use standard volume pumps 10294/10295 . So you say it, Melling says it, but all the avg LS guy hears "Oh did you say High Volume and High Pressure?" YES! MOAR is better man, let's put it in! 🤦

His lungs dont flow 42psi with that talking 😂

That breathing is killing me

My LS3 has a Dry sump.....2010 Grand Sport 6 speed motor...Also forged crank and hand assembled at GM like the LS7/9 motors....Not really too impressed with the layout of the LS series motor oil galleys....Lots of NASTY hard 90 degree turns and restrictions in the OEM motors...No wonder so many LS7/LS9's had warranty issues if they were used on a track day event. Gen1 motors have better oiling layouts than LS motors...FACT!

I cant say i agree with this comment, i like the LS galleys better except for the passages through the pan rail to the pan and filter and back, thats a stupid design. I think the gen one oil pump is better than the crank driven design, mainly because its driven at half the rpms and less likely to cavitize.

idk what bothers me more... this guys bad cardio huffing in the mic or the birds chirping in the background. 🤔
