The Melling "M" Select pumps have what you are looking for, also on the "other" forum there is the well known Melling thread, if you go back a ways in it there are some other brands of pump that are NOT actually Melling. I want to say Milodon was one but I'm not sure.
The select pumps all have a five digit part number beginning with 10 |

hi, and thank you!!
ok, with the M-selects, i have the stronger casting....but no billet gears... it seems, that most (all?? ) new pumps have p/m gears, that are not that tough than billet..they seem to break from time to time... http://www.4m.net/archive/index.php?t-9657.html http://speedtalk.com/forum/viewtopic...44a8b3c875d287 http://speedtalk.com/forum/viewtopic...69f83120f28c85 greetings... |

I have to ask these questions...
How many OEM SBC oil pumps fail? I sure don't hear about them. How good does an oil pump gear HAVE to be? It's bathed in oil after all... |

I have to ask these questions... I agree, you're being a bit too sensitive about the gears. Besides I'm thinking the "M" select pumps do have billet gears. Before Melling had a brain fart and lightened their pumps I used to twist a 350 to 8000 rpm all the time when I was drag racing. Never ever had a problem. |
