The oil SUPPLY system is great- It's the RETURN passageways that are a bit... Um... Slow? I used the brand new 3L oil pump that came on my otherwise brand new 3L block. Indeed it is very stout. I took it apart to ensure there were no metal shavings from when the piston let go, and put a thin film of grease on all parts when I put it back together (quicker prime, since the motor was bone dry when I cranked it), using loc-tite on all the screws.

My question is that the mechanic recomended he get a new different oil pump for the car. So I was wondering if this is nessesary or not? Take the front cover of the pump off and make sure there aren't any metal shavings in there. The stock pump from either engine (3L or 2.5L) should be fine. If there are any metal shavings in there, make sure there isn't any wear scuffs where the gears make their pressur against the housing of the pump. If there are, get a new pump or use the one from the 3L. http://www.bnmotorsports.com "And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my CEG brothers.
