Are they all pin drive? I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Are you wanting to change the pump or the cam?

I was trying to get away without changing the pump however I think the cam will dictate the pump... I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

How old is the pump? I would call them a service item if the cam is coming out... On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

On a 1275 I'd agree, but on a 998 with the tappet chest covers, its feasible to swap the cam "properly" e.g. with followers, without stripping the engine.

yep the pump is still showing very good oil pressure. I doubt I will get a cam that I want with a pin drive.

Could you not have yours reground Graham? If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

Buy a pin drive from someone, have it reground! On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

The van's engine ran good oil preasure (not that we had a gauge) but the inside of the pump was badly worn and scored. A slot drive 998 oil pump is only £15... On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

Can you do this with a std cam? I stupidly thought that you needed bigger lobes? but I'm new to all this cam stuff... Most aftermarket performance cams are reground from standard ones, they just reduce the base circle diameter to "gain" the extra on the lobe to change its shape. Only if the word "billet" or similar appears in the title (and it's 5 times the price) will it have been ground from a new casting and have the correct base circle diameter.
