Bolting the pump to the block and use the original drive makes things easier to mount and safe some space, good engineering.

I looked at the web site and searched for what gear type this pump uses.
I had a Weaver brothers 3-stage pump on my engine and it gave very little vacuum.
I have bought a used AutoVerdi 6-stage Nascar pump with teflon coated roots style gears and when you turn the pump by hand, you can hear the the air pumping out of the scavenge stages.
Roots style scavenge dry sump pumps will work so good, that you can eliminate the vaccum pump.
I bought a Moroso 3-vane pump to use with the Weaver 3-stage pump, that I will sell along with old dry sump pump.
Dry sump pumps comes in three different types of gears.
Spur gears, Georotor gears and Roots.

I have a four stage Weaver on this engine and you can hear the air coming through.... when using the drill. Im not sure how much vaccumm its helping pull but with the engine at 1500rpm its goes up to 10-12 pounds quick. Vaccumm pump is only a 3 vane morrosso

The front can get messed up but for pulling doesnt matter much as long as you have space.

are you sure you don't mean inches of vacuum? 10-12 pounds would suck the oil pan flat.

...gone!
I sent payment for my pump already

Quote:


It does not do the job a well period



what works for top fuel will not work necessarily for eveything else. This should be fine for my application
I like the fact that it is compact and I don't have to use another pulley to drive the pump.

do I really need it? No. but do we really need any of our cars?
this pump is something I've wanted for a long time

as always, when I get the pump, I will dissect it
and post up pics

The problem I see with that pump is it puts a large amount of strain on the oil pump drive gear. May not like the idea of a belt driven pump but if you put an oil pressure switch on the ignition power that would likely save the motor if the belt ever breaks.

Here's a link to a 572 Hemi build by Ken Lazzeiri using a missle dry sump setup. Not a big Indy fan myself but I do respect their knowledge.

it makes it nice and simple to add a vacuum side, which eliminates some money that normally would be spent on a vacuum system and related parts...What about $1200 according to my last investment. This would be one good reason for such a oil pump...But I was looking at the more econ0 deals that can be found from Petersons 4 and 5 stage pumps.

I have not heard anybody who uses this pump refer to it as a bad piece.
Maybe no one was man enough to admit they bought a piece of junk
if it is a bad pump, then I guess I will take one for the team, at my cost

and you will read about it here

I've got three missile pumps and never had a problem on my 1100 HP n/a and 1300-1400 NOS engines. I think they're good pumps. I use Charlies oil pans that cost about $450.00 and Steffs dry sump tanks. I bought two pumps from JoE Baker and one off ebay. Paid $400.00 for each pump. All three are 4 stage and pull about 9 inches of vacuum on there own. Any questions pm me and I'll help you out.

I researched this awhile ago when looking for a dry sump system for my current engine.The actual Missle users I talked to told me that gear wear is the same as if you were driving a normal wet sump pump.In other words they last as long as any other bronze gear intermediate shaft.They are nicely made and I heard no complaints.6-8 in vacuum is what I was told is normal for these pumps to make by themselves.
All that being said, I went with the Dailey setup like in Fred's picture.Mine is a 5 stage with the pump section at the rear of the suction sections.Dailey uses a roots type lobe for the pump/suctions.75-80 psi at 9500 rpm hot with 0w10 oil with 15 in vacuum regulated,will pull 20-22 with no regulator.I am using their pan and a Steff's tank.It's nice not having the extra plumbing on the left side of the engine.That is the main reason I went with this setup.3 lines,feed,return and pressure to the block.
I hope this helps!

there are a few members here that use the same mantra "COST IS NO OBJECT". Like it or not I am a charter member. I have yet to build a project that didn't get every part it needed based on cost. For example my roller lifters were 1600.00 . the titanium valves recieved a special diamond coating which rose their total cost to near $190.00 each. If for a blink of an eye there was an oil system that stood head and heels over the rest of the field it would be on my motors. As of now there's not a single a Hemi using one that I could name.




Any dry sump pump that uses roots style on the Scavenge side will be above the rest of the pumps that use only spur or georotor gears.
I am partial to AutoVerdi as that is a Swedish brand with very high quality and precision.
I bought my pump used for 850USD here in Sweden. As the loobs are coated with a light blue colored coating of teflon, it is pretty easy to look at the loobs and see any scratches and dents in the surface of the coating. My pump is in excellent cond.

If I had a bigger budget, I would have bought a new pump with 3-loobs roots style in the pump with wider sections, So I could have the same capacity in 4 or 5 stages that will make the same job as my 6-stage, but with less plumbing.

I know that Barnes makes Roots style with 3-loobs also.
Donīt know which brands that comes with teflon coatings besides Verdi ?

What difference does it make if a hemi has one? I don't know of too many quick 32 of 16 cars that run hemis, they all have indy wedge motors for the most part.When you are 60 footing 1.0S I would rather not worry about a swiveling pickup failing.If you need it you need it.if you don't you don't.road racing good idea never half to worry about a pickup catching air.On a fast car the same, oil good air bad


God made cold beer,good friends,hot ladies and race cars don't spit in his face by pi$$ing and moaning about how life sucks!!!

I wish that I would have stumbled across this thread before you bought your pump. I am seriously considering a Missle setup and would have liked to have got it at a discount.

If your curious about the Missile Pumps, I just got in touch with Steve Lanius... I am sending my pump to him to have him go through it for a freshen up...

This is a dailey system. I run one a 660 inch motor, and it pulls 19 inches at idle with no vacuum pump.
