S&S oil pump & EVO
Did any one else put an s&s oil pump on their EVO ? what a pain it was with oil pressure. Its a high volume pump, not high pressure. The stock oil filter didnt work, went with a k&n high flow filter, and was told by k&n I would not lose filtration, but who knows.
Was just wondering it any one else was running a s&s pump on their evo and had the same trouble.
Stock filter 60# psi cold,and it would come out the push rod covers. Was heating the bike up with a space heater before starting. K&N filter 40# psi cold. Hot it runs 15+ at an idle.

K&N
Yep K&N was the trick, still have not found any one who put a S&S pump on a Evo, I know I'm not the first.

Well the S&S pump is fine. When I put the pump on I also put a 4 core jagg oil cooler on at the same time. The extra 30 % oil flow didnt want to pass through the cooler. I ended up pulling the cooler off. Now I know should have used at lest a 6 core cooler.
Cold the oil pressure is around 40#, hot at an idle 15# with 20-50. Next oil change going to straight 50

guage
At the sending unit for the oil light I put in a nipple, "T" nipple with a 45* and a liquid filled guage. The nipples I first used were steel and would leak at the block. Went with brass because of the heat esspansion difference with the block and steel nipple. Dont use a cheep guage, they have a plastic lens and will melt. Also with the "T" you still use the sending unit and still have your oil light.
