Ok, enough with the ARP. LOL
what I mean, on a street machine, there's reallly no reason to run a high volume pump. The 302 has more than enough in it to keep the top oiled. Unlilke the Older FE's which need all sorts of upgrades to their oiling system if you built it. The only rough spot in the 302's oiling system, and you can ask almost any engine builder) is that the pumps are of a poor design, by comparison to a gm pump.

Rick, call lugo's performance in Apopka, fla. The pump he set me up with has been a god send.lol. no more lump in the throat when i hit 7K on the tack and the oil hits 0. . 3 times with the high volume is enough to teach me. As far as the melling web site goes. Only a dunce would compare the oiling system of an FE engine to a windsor. Sales gimmick.. Thats my opinion, so dont start flamming.
