Default Small Block Oil Pump

I thought there was a thread on this but I could'nt find it.

What small block Chevy oil pump are people using?
The reason I ask is I know the design changed a few years ago for the big blocks. And haven't done a small block in a while.
Thanks.

Thanks Ryan, I was just going to post what I found on the Team Chevelle site,
Melling # 10552 with the m55067 spring, that drops the pressure to 60#'s of pressure instead of 70# spring it comes with.
