Stock pumps have the elongated hole put given the passage from the block is round its questionable as to the benefit. Smoothing the rough casting in all those ports is a definite bonus.
I imagine the slotted rotor is someone's idea for lubrication. How many millions of pumps are out there without the slot ?!?!? Pointless. If it someones idea and pointless,then Chrysler is the culprit,that is a N.O.S. pump in the original box unopened when I got it 30 yrs ago !!

I think everything has a reason (good or bad!). it may have been a slot to secure it for machining somewhere down the line but if that is the case you'd sure think all of em would have it (or something similar).

Just won't quit will you,as far as since,maybe just because you have never seen one thats an assumption on your part and you know what that can mean !! Also if you want to turn a simple question into a p#####g match,no better place than Moparts !
