How many miles and months/years has the RCM oil pump covered? How much are you looking for?

Cheers. I was just seeing if it had only been on the engine for bugger-all time e.g. days, weeks, etc.... You're right, with oil pumps it's stupid not to fit new.

my mate got a good company off ebay.

v9 nitirded forged crank
forged rods
mahle pistons
oil pump
and all the gaskets etc that you need for 1700 pound.

but them thats not absolutely everything you need.

better when your in there giving yourself a solid bottom end.

phone rcm or any of the tuning comps and they will advise you on things. i dealt with rcm and they were spot on. (roger clark motorsport)

If your not in a hurry you can guarantee there will be a good forged engine for sale soon by somone ?? this can potentially save you a lot of cash
