Ed: Don't use a high-volume pump unless your engine has extremely high oil clearances, as if it were worn out . Remember that an oil pump always moves the same volume regardless of what it bypasses to maintain the oil pressure set by the pressure regulator. So I suggest you don't install a HV pump and not waste the power as was done "in the old days."
