How much pressure do you have now?
With what oil?
How much do you think you need, and why?

Unless you are building it real loose, you shouldn't have a problem meeting those pressures with a stock high volume melling pump. That's what I get out of mine.

The HV pump has the higher pressure relief. The std pumps need to shim or replace the spring... And I got one from Manicini about a month ago.
Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.

I just ordered a high pressure spring from Mancini today
why do you need it? a stock pump will get the job done unless you have a problem elsewhere
