I said notorious because everywhere I look for info if states the HV pump will heat your oil and pump oil to the valve covers more that standard volume. If that is true then valve covers full of oil topped with bad/non-existant valve seals in my engine could lead to the start up smoke???

I actually have an HV68, masquerading as a FMS pump, in the shop in the original box. After all my research I went out and purchased a standard oil pump to use until I put the SC on. At that point I may put the HV in??? We'll see.
