Would have an interest in this alright. RCM 12mm modified price.

Will be doing timing belt, pulleys, tensioners etc at the same time so maybe extra discount?

to be honest i would say it would either have to be the 11mm or 12mm pump. probably edging towards the 12mm.

do it once and do it right

I've got the standard 10mm RCMS pumps in stock, plus I have non modified 11, & 12mm pumps in stock.

I would need to look into having the pressure relief valves changing if that's what people prefer on the bigger pumps ?

from ZEN website.....

"High performance engines reject a substantial amount of heat through the oil system. Maintaining oil pressure along with an increase in actual volume will help dissipate heat and stabilize oil temperatures. Additionally, sustained High RPM use may cause oil starvation at the rod and main bearings. Increasing the oil volume will help to prevent bearing damage and engine failure. The NEW Cosworth High Volume Subaru EJ20/EJ25 series oil pump utilizes a completely new inner and outer 12mm rotor to increase volume by 20%." (ZEN PERFORMANCE)

PRV is the bit that causes most oil pump failures. They have a small lip in them that can get snagged IIRC.

I have to have all my work done within the next month so unless there is a group buy running soon I'll have to opt out of this & just buy direct myself. Any updates on prices?
