Default Theroetically speaking..

An oem oil pump on a b16 at 10,000-10,500 RPM is being stressed less than say a gsr at the same rpm right? I figure the b16 is a shorter stroke motor and has less vibrations. drastically reducing the chance of failure compared to the 1.8's

As far as I know, harmonic resonance is what destroys oil pump gears. so wouldnt a properly dampned b16 be able to see those rpms frequently without failure?

Stresses in a rotating part rise exponentially with rpms. It has a limit whether it vibrates or not, although I have no idea what that limit is.

yeah, umm, good point *rolls eyes* BUILT BEING THE KEY WORD. his question is will a built B16 that is capable of revving to 10k not tear up the oil pump.

the question was answered already via AIM, but more insight wont hurt.
