Just a question about oil pump fitment for those of you with that knowledge or experience.......

Im doing a cam conversion on my 02 Heritage to the (07 & later) hydraulic cam plate with Andewrs 21n cam.

Ive read all the threads i could find. Im using the parts list on the Andrews web site, with one exception.....I bought the #62400001 Screamin Eagle oil pump. It was cheaper than the stock oil pump (#26037-06).

Neither oil pump has an O ring at the plate mating surface, they both line up to the pate. I can't see a reason why it wouldn't work just fine.

Is there any reason why this #62400001 Screamin Eagle oil pump would not work for this conversion with the STOCK (07-later) cam Plate #25355-06??

The reason Im asking, is that i just came from the dealer to get some gaskets. The parts guy suggested that this pump would not work because it would cause varying oil pressure. It got me thinking, but Im not sure he understood what I was doing, because he was trying to sell me the Sceamin Eagle billet cam plate at $500.

I just called Andrews, they are out till Monday.

Has anyone had any experience with the upgrade and this pump?

Thanks for the replies!

 

The 62400001 pump will work. It is an upgrade to the -06 pump; scavenges better and more flow than the -06.

 

Thanks djl

Exactly what I thought. Good to hear! I appreciate the feed back!

Do you have any thought on putting the Axtell oil bypass kit in the stock plate before I put this together?

Thanks Again!

 

Axtell bypass kit is a worthwhile upgrade. If it had been available when I last changed cams in my all bore 107", I would have installed one.
