Just pulled my roadster a part to find broken oil pump mellings m55 new style.
Motor is 400 inch motown block eagle crank, rods and wiseco pistons, soild roller cam and stefs pan.
This is the second pump.
First time no proplems this time crank spun 3&4 main bearings
My research has turned up, pump casting junk, arp dist. shaft not flexable, solid motor mounts and fluiddamper NG.

Any insight or help greatly appreacated.
