Figured I'd start posting what works/doesn't work as far as oil pumps for remote mount turbo setups. Not that I'm doing a remote mount anything, but I had benchrace-built a setup one night in my head back when I had the gas F-250. www.racerpartswholesale.com/product/1546/Mocal_Differential_Cooler_Pump I PM'd Evan, who owns an LS1-FD, on V8rx7forum about this pump, he said "Hey man, I like the pump so far but I have only had it on for about 800 or 900 miles. The only problem with it is that it's a little loud so to quiet it down we used rubber gromets to dampen the sound. It's still kinda loud but once the cars on you can't hear it at all. So as of right now I would buy this pump again. I hope this helps."

www.rbracing-rsr.com/oilsystems.htm Those are supposedly doing really well according to a couple different forums. What do you think about a low-mount/remote-mount KA-T Hardbody? Either tied into the pipe from the exhaust manifold, or tucked up inside the bed? iirc, either would be well protected from ground strikes, and a piece of metal or plastic (like the stock plastic skidplate) would keep out most of the debris.

Alright. I'll see when I can either fly down and drive back up or drive down and haul back the truck. What do you want to do for engine management and for a turbo?

EM I was thinking megasquirt, turbo, see if we can find a properly sized holset at pull a part. I found an old email with my ka-t list in my work email, I'd sent it to either you or myself so I wouldn't lose it. I'll pull it up tomorrow and print it/forward it to you.
