I have a booster plate on my oil pump along with the adjustable pressure regulator and my pressure is 10-15psi at hot idle and around 35psi max operating/cruising. My regulator is threaded all the way in flush to the nut. will this kit work with the booster plate, help restore the proper end clearance and maybe boost my pressure up? Should I get a pump rebuild kit also? http://www.taperformance.com/proddetail.asp?prod=TA_1704 Also since I have the booster plate do I need this gasket also? http://www.taperformance.com/proddetail.asp?prod=TA_1707
Maybe, maybe not. It depends on how much wear there is in the front cover. If your cover is OK, yes, you can set end clearance. BTW, I did a thread on all this in the FAQ Forum. http://www.v8buick.com/index.php?threads/oil-pump-clearances-and-oil-pressure.326597/
It's a proform unit that is maybe 5 years old, but until I pull it apart I don't know how much wear there is. I should've known better and looked first Larry! of course you would have a thread for that lol Thank you for the link!
Ha HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, Looks like your gonna have to add something like The Thread guy, to your A.K.A. Larry!. " I gotta thread for that"
