Oil Pump
Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2007 7:34 pm
There has been some talk about GR vs GPX for a while now and one thing that has come up that has got me thinkin is that it is common for the MIVEC engine to have bottom end bearing failure, mostly due to oil starvation.
So I have been thinkin that maybe a 6a12tt or 6a13tt oil pump might solve this problem, I'm just not sure if there is any differences between the oil pump on these engines and the MIVEC engine, I'm just guessing that they might supply more oil because they have to supply oil for twin turbos and they should be able to go on the MIVEC engine as they have similar blocks.
