MMR Billet oil pump install

[z06psi]

Believe me I dreaded this but it's really easier than you would think.
Start by going around the crank and turn the belt vertical so it will go behind the crank pulley, then put the belt on the A/C pulley, start turning the crank clockwise while feeding the belt back out from behind the crank pulley.

O.k.


It has taken me four hours to get the bolt started and tightened in the oil pump.

3 hours to start the bolt and then 1 hour to tighten it.


Thoughts of welding, red loctiting one bolt, and ritual suicide crossed my mind. What a PITA.

[MENTION=15679]RBS550[/MENTION] did you also go with MMR High Flow Oil Pump Pick Up tube w/ ARP Bolts. Or did you just go with their standard oil pump?

I was already at 7700 before doing this.

I reused my bolts and pickup tube. I was unaware of the option at the time.
My memory is not the best, but I think the pickup tube goes all the way to the rear of the pan, since that's the low point. Assuming this, it would be very involved to change out the pickup tube, keep in mind I could be incorrect, I have not researched that subject.
