High Volume Oil pump.. OPG's in my regular GT not 350.

[Wolvee]

I'm looking to put in the GT350 (M-6675-M52) or GT500 (M-6675-M52S) oil pans and High flow oil pump but it's my understanding that they also have the normal/bad OPG's.

Is that true?
Are OPG failures as common in GT350's? I am a Procharged GT.
Can I use my GT billet OPG's in the new pump or are they pump specific?
Are all GT350 oil pumps High volume?

I'm finding conflicting info across Google so I was hoping there were people in here that have the answers.

(Standard GT, not a GT350)

The 2020 G500 oil pump is a higher volume/flow pump than the GT350 oil pump. You can get that and it will be a direct fit onto your GT350. However, you will also have to utilize the 2020 GT500 pickup tube as it is a bolt-up design instead of the grommet/press-fit design. I'm not 100% sure, but you may also need to utilize the 2020 GT500 oil pan with this.

You can buy all of it as a kit:

By switching to this oil pan, you'll also have to utilize the 2020 GT500 dip-stick and dip-stick tube as the pan is deeper than the stock GT350 oil pan and your stock dip-stick will not reach far enough down to get an accurate reading as to how much oil is in the vehicle. This will also necessitate the use of the 2020 GT500 valve-covers as the 2020 GT500 dip-stick tube will not fit onto the stock GT350 valve covers due to the orientation of the mounting bracket and the spot for it to mount on the stock GT350 valve-covers. This pan will also add 1.5 quarts of capacity over what the stock GT350 oil pan can hold which is factory rated for 10 quarts.

You will not be able to utilize GT OPG's or GT350 OPG's in the 2020 GT500 oil pump as they are a different size. I ended up going with Boundary ported OPG's made for the 2020 GT500 since I used the above-mentioned kit:

There are varying opinions on whether you need to replace the OPG's and crank sprocket. I am of the opinion that if you are going to be running a power-adder on the car, it's extremely cheap insurance to go ahead and change them out for stronger pieces given what it costs to put a new motor into your vehicle.
