I don't know what to modify. :-) And the engine is already together. So, I can't clearance it. Is it just the shaft that goes into the cam that needs to be rounded a bit (like a "D").

Hell of a lot of coin for a cheap pump, you realize that site is out of New Zealand right?

Yes Ive seen these pumps for sale before and it is a lot. I have a 2.4 T4 that has a cast Iron pump. On the Front it Says Made in the USA and 8mm. I am Assuming it is a Melling pump... I want to upgrade but this one has been on the engine for a while and works. Im just doing it as preventative maintenance while the engine is out.

Thanks for any Advice

Just when you thought this thread was dead. Putting in a front oil cooler. Need a pump that will move enough oil. Been reading on the internet, and here, but I'd like to hear what the best fix is today. It's only a 2.0 L but other than the rods and oil pump, nothing else is stock . Can you help a brother out with a pump I can trust? Thanks

So perhaps off topic, apologies; but is there any experience with these pumps sold on theSamba?

A full flow cover and modified engine mount.

I will make the full flow engine mount (yellow part in pic) if anyone needs one, but a core is required.

I will be using a 30mm Shadek pump and a Gene Berg full flow cover with pressure relief (Mark Henry's recommendation (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) ).

I modified both engine mounts as minimally as possible, but I recommend Mark Henry's mounts.

This will lead to my remote filter and thermostat sub assembly that will be bolted to the lower firewall on the driver side, then to the front cooler.

I was also curious about this pump. Apparently they have only been on the market for about 6 months.

Has anyone spoken to the guy reselling? I believe his name is Tabari Andrade. Is he a member on here.

Tabari did my rockers. He also sells 10mm German Swivel Foot rocker and solid spacers. Advertises over on theSamba.com

$330 is a lot of bones for a pump

I'd do the 30mm pump and Gene Berg pressure relief cover as in montreal914's 1st pic. You don't have to remote filter this set-up, you could just plug the cover (and not plug the pump return side) and the pressure relief feature still works.
My 2.6 liter T4 powered bug has a 26mm and a regular steel FF cover.

The reason I don't like aluminum covers is because the pump gears try to drill through them. You can really see this on old T1 covers, but I see this in stock T4 pumps as well.

I'm using the CB Maxi Pump 914/type 4
I did little port matching but wasn't much. I clearanced the cam bolts very slightly to insure working clearance.
For my 2056. oil pressure stays about 50 at cruising speed and was inexpensive.
Retains stock oil cooler. Oil temps stay below half gauge on combo oil temp gauge outside temperatures in the 80's.
I haven't seen the need to run an aux oil cooler even though i've got everything needed to hook it up.

This all sounds good, I will be going with the CB 1829 pump

BTW, what did you use for pistons? heads? FI or carbs?
Thanks
