Sorry to Highjack. But I am building a 383 right now so we both might get some good info out of it.

You don't want a high-volume or high-pressure oil pump - go with the Melling Select pump P/N 10553 and install the lower-pressure spring. The pump comes with a steel intermediate shaft, and requires a 5/8" pickup

I have heard this before about the oil pump. what is the reason behind this.

What side of Houston are you on Texas77
