I know this has been debated many times but what is the latest oil pump solution for the race 351c? I spin my motor to just under 7000 and I have always used high volume pumps with my solid lifter cams and run oil galley restrictors.------------------

I run a deep pan, high volume pump with the Moroso high pressure spring, and restrictors. I haven't had a bearing related failure in almost 10 yrs using this setup. I wont run a standard volume pump in a race cleveland. I think it's asking for trouble with a motor that has oiling deficiencies. JMHO
