Why would "Ek00FBP" want a stock oil pump when runng higher hp than stock? Just to blow his motor again? I think his smartest idea yet is to get a Pro Drive oil pump to save his investment in his motor.

As Pro Drive says:
An unfortunately common side effect of running high horsepower engines that utilize certain OEM components is that you soon find the limitations of those components. Of course, this usually happens at the most unopportune moment, when you need the engine to perform at its best.

One component that has become an increasing problem as horsepower has increased is the OEM oil pump. For some reason, OEM oil pump failure is especially common in Honda Prelude motors but also happens in B16 and B18 motors.
The stock oil pump is made from sintered metal. This is a process where a very fine powdered metal is placed in a mold and and pressed into shape to bind the material together.

ProDrive Oil Pumps are built from a stress proof billet material that has been proven to handle the extreme loads common in high horsepower motors.
If you want to make it across the finish line first, replacing the weak points in your engine with durable ProDrive components is cheap insurance against component failure.
