Hi 72 Westie, Just wanted to know how much success you have had with the Oil Pump Conversion with the Screw Adjustment, Has it given better results than the original set-up??? I hope you are having a Great Season & winning some Races.

Can you advise me what style/brand of Cams you are running & what Max Revs can you obtain.

Many Thanks & Best Regards. Jack.

We ditched the oil pump cover idea as it helped lead to a crank failure. We are running the stock pump covers with a little bit lighter spring on one side and just changing the pump spindle when it needs it. We were using our own design pump covers and not the screw adjustment style that the Gentleman for Massachusetts (I think) makes. 

The cams were an E-bay special. I would have to check one of the dyno runs to see what RPM's we hit, I can't remember at the moment.
