Tony, I have to second what Mike said, not sure of the spec for your blower as it's Rootes style blowers I am familiar with. It is purely a matter of matching things up and you will be pleasantly surprised at the results. We went through a lot of parts to get a combination that survives what we do t...

This is a fairly common problem at high RPM and or excessive load. We fitted an oil feed pipe from the pump cover to spray into the nip between the gears, this was a fairly common mod in the rover V8 drag race series days, there used to be an off the shelf kit for it, don't know who made it as we ma...
