It's All About the Build
Does the Melling oil pump use the same plug for the relief valve as the 4.6L 3V or 5.4L 4V?

In your opinion then, if the person felt fine in disassembling a stock pump and using billet gears, would you still recommend the melling pump over a stock with billet gears?
Does it provide the pressure and volume that the phasers require?
Harmonics does have its affects on any set pump gears installed, but the epic failure of the stock gears is due to Ford's selection of materials. Their overall design of the oil pump is good it just needed someone to come along and make the proper changes.
RPM is no limit of our gears, our shop car which has a set of our off the shelf HO gears leaves at 5000rpm is shifted at 9000rpm and goes through the 1/4 mile traps 9200rpm at 170mph.

Got my Melling oil pump installed after JPC hooked me up with it and fired the car up last night and everything is great so far! Thanks JPC!!

Has Melling made any statements that they'll replace any engine that craters due to a failure of their pump?
Yes, and I'd also include a free pony with each purchase.Would you?

That's fair. Thanks for offering a good product. I'll probably throw a set in next time the front of the motor is off.Takes all the other "he said, she said" variables out of the equation and allows us to offer a warranty.
Hey, now we're talkin. I'll be doing heads in the summer, maybe... will that be ready by then? And where's my pony?!Sounds great, we look forward to doing business. By that time we are going to be offering our oil pump with a new housing and a few new bells and whistles as a package deal.
