high pressure oil pumps

[reelbad2]

does anyone offer a high pressure oil pump for the amc 360? if so who? iam running 65psi at 55mph and 5-10 at idle. please help.

When was the last time it was rebuilt? If recently, the timing cover may be worn causing low pressure. But running 65 at driving speed is good.

There's been some discussion on this in the past for this subject... Do a quick search and I'm sure you'll get a few posts.

Well..... there's the "oilpump rebuild kit w/ Hi-Pressure Spring. About $13 bones to your door from American Performance.

There's also the whole enchilada "Hi-Volume AMC oilpump" from AM Racing for $500. That's w/ new timing cover... but you have to send your cover as a core too. Ouch....

theres not a whole lot wrong with those numbers.
rule of thumb 10 psi every 1000rpm.....phil
