Oil Pumps

[kfrito789]

My 3.5 motor is almost put together. 10:1 with Schrick cam and 40 DCOE's. I have two questions: Should I do anything to the stock oil pump? What Distributor will work well with this set-up?

Thanks in advance

As long as you used the latest spec M30 oil pump you should be fine.

I don't speak distributor; hopefully someone else can chime in. Anything beyond Pertronix and I want DIS!

You don't say what spec the cam is but with regards to the distributor you should really go to a specialist rolling road tuner who has the knowledge/ability to modify distibutors as each car is different and a good tuner will be able to optimise your timing curve to best suit your engine.

67 dino!

Keith, Sorry I cant help with the dizzy stuff, but I haven't even thought about a 67 Dino in about 40+ years. Maybe an off topic picture? I can see that pretty cowl and grille in my mind right now;the Road & Track black and white photos embossed in the grey matter for eternity. Sounds like a great diverse collection. Dave V. in NC

Dave The fiat dino is a Coupe, bought last year on whim. Love the sound that v6 makes. I'll dig up some pictures and e-mail you
