My early 2017 SGS has the original 119 number pump.Fitted Stage 111.Has not missed a beat in 18 months no matter how hard and long I run it! Just trying to get a message to the guys with non sumping bikes to stop pump hunting.
If you're going to be in there anyway,just fit the plate and seal and don't mess with it further.

I am just curious what would be cost of updating to latest 2020 pump if I would let dealer fo it? I know pump is 120$ or so but how much in labor I should count for this job?
bike is stock and upgrading cams would be nice but while it is stock I guess I will need new exhaust and tuner at least so this might add additional $$$

You're not getting anything for nothing from the MoCo unless the government requires it. All that loyalty, brotherhood, family nonsense ceases the minute you sign on the dotted line.
All their engineers and the supposed "millions of miles of testing" resulted in a "fix" well after release - and lots or owner heartache???
Sounds a little bit like the Ford diesel Six-Uh Oh, I mean 6.0 ... but then again, Ford MoCo is profitable too.

I have an early build 2017 RKS - I took delivery mid September of 2016. I am going to be upgrading the cam soon, and was planning on replacing the oil pump. I have 6K miles, don't ride it all that hard but have never seen any issues that would lead me to believe it sumps. From what I've seen, it seems like the early builds are pretty solid - maybe the MOCO got a cheaper supplier after the first batch of pumps. So, am I wasting my money changing the pump? Should I just replace the plate with the new one with the seal?
