Default Oil pump anyone?
This is how Roger Clark Motorsport present their uprated oil pumps.
It's just one reason why we use these in all our builds!





It's like the difference between Chanel and Poundstretchers own brand..

They obviously use high quality boxes, must take ages to put them together and the level of r & d that goes into getting the box to fit the pump perfectly, the attention to detail is outstanding, the continuity of care is truly amazing.

I'm getting a semi-on at the sight of the rcm logo and look forward to the day when i can behold such a work of art in the flesh

Class it is, but how many of us would vote for a plain box, that brown oiled paper that Stanley Knife blades used to come in and a reduction in their prices?

The box is of no use ON the car, is it?

Sometimes in this world a little quality goes a long way towards peace of mind and a warm inner glow that comes from buying the best.
The best example I can think of is the difference beween shopping in Asda as opposed to Mark's and Spencer.
In this particular case, being fair, RCM have upgraded the presentation of their excellent products without a price increase.
Of course, we are always willing to pass on a worthwhile discount from RCM retail prices to Scoobynet customers.

Do you flog them on your market stall ?

P.S. As a Yorkshireman, I'll settle for waxed paper and a smear of oil, but what I do in my own time is neither here nor there...

......just checked my pump box again

OK it's brown but mine has a "warning sticker" saying fitting the pump does not prevent a bottom end failure.

Does yours ?
