I had this in my build thread but nobody is responding so I am pulling it out.
I ran across this description of the different Oil Pumps. Is there a physical/visual way to tell which pump is which?
The below is talking about the B5234T Engine:
The high power output has placed greater demands on the engine lubricating system and cooling. The following have been changed in comparison to the other 5-cylinder engines:
-The oil pump capacity has been increased by a wider pump wheel and a modified profile.
-The relief valve has a more rigid spring and opens at 6 bars of pressure (B5254's opens at 5 bar).
I want to make sure I am running the higher capacity pump but unfortunately I dont know what I grabbed when I assembled the car. Does anyone have access to these two pumps and can say whether they are visually different from the outside casting?
