Melling 10778 oil pump question
#41
Banned
I've used a lot of T&D rockers with the spring oilers and also installed piston oilers on same motors...never had oil pressure issues. IMO the 10778 is a good upgrade. On "car" engines where we run 5/30 oil and tight clearances, I use standard volume pumps and never have oil pressure issues. We're talking 950+hp n/a engines that can see 7500+.

^^^ Horsepower1 - I am not asking in anyway or any form from a negative stand point here but I have looked at some of your posts and would like ask who are you and are you an engine builder, along with have you built many engines for the marine side and or marine specific. Again this is not a dig in any form of negative asking. It seems you know alot here about the internal side of engines. If you would like (want to) my PM has some open spots up here if you are willing to give out that info. If not I understand as well.

The C is anti cavitation.
Good pump but be aware that due to the anti cavitation veining in the body at idle your motor will have low oil pressure. Around 10psi @ 800rpms for me with 2 motors this oil pump is used in. Pop the gas a little and up to 60lbs it goes. Just nature of the beast with the "C" pump.

Anyways since I attend PRI Show every year I will visit booth 109. this is how I looked up this info from www.prishow.com
here you go and would been so much easy to just list his biz name.

and a very good vid on the push rod length on your behalf.
I can not tell you how many times on reman marine engines that the boat owner and or marine shops buy and install that the push rod length is incorrect. Just saying

^^^^^^ No problem. I look up here just about everyday and post almost everyday. I seen some of your posts and thought at first you were the engine builder Gellner but then realized that you someone else. On a few of your posts my thoughts were that you are very sharp about the internals of engines so my asking was a compliment to you. Anyways I always try follow true leaders in the industry to further my own knowledge. ie: Dart, Vizard, Reyer & Morrison, EFI tuners, a couple of teams of engine master challenge, actually have a friend who enters this but not this year and so on. See you at PRI - And thanks again.
So that was you in the push rod length vid - if so - you do not have a TN accent. Had to throw that in.
