I will have the melling HV pump, block has already been opened up for 1/2" and smoothed, just going to run the deep pan, I just wanted to make sure i was going to have zero oiling issues, i know i know, as long as the pick up remains covered I am good, but whats an extra $350 for the oil pump and dizzy drive when you have $3k in the motor ? I do want to push this car and see if a Silver state challenge 200mph+ is possible, motor has full groove bearings on the mains, so the added psi shouldn't be an issue, I was planning on running 10w-30, I mean we are in floridas winter month and a half right now so it is a bit brisk out, but I don't think it should be an issue for the other 10 1/2 months lol, especially in all the damn stop and go here in jacksonville,
