I was wondering if anyone has any experiance with this oil pump?

There has been numerous failures with the 96-00 SOHC oil pump and I was wondering if this would resolve this issue.

Thanks

I've personally seen 96-00 crankshafts against D16Z6 cranks, and the diff is less hole chamfering on the Y7/Y8 cranks, and the Y7 cranks I've seen had their oil passages drilled odd - the journals were not crossdrilled, meaning oil was only being pushed onto one side of the bearing. I do know the Z6 crank I had balanced needed only 1 spot of material removed - it could be Honda got a little cheap and didn't balance the Y7/Y8's all that well, or I got a good crank.

I really don't think it is the oil pump to be honest. You can also mod the pump to remove restrictions and smooth the flow with a grinder and devcon epoxy to help with 7k+ rpm's.

 

Ok, I had benson balance and polish the crank so I should be good?

 

port out your Y7/Y8 oil pump according to .theoldone.com

 

Im runnin a TOGA HV fuel pump on my built turbod d16y7 and I have had no trouble with it..It is a pretty well machined oil pump and seemed to be of good quality!

 

i spubn a bearing with the old one type oil pump that was also shimed for more pressure.. i now use the toga pump on my d and rev to 9 k all day long

 

How many miles on the engine and pump?

Good to know. I'm in the process of finding an engine builder. I have in my posession a Z6, Y7, and Y8 crank. I'll get some pics up.
