This Powerstorm product is billet steel oil pump gears for the Ford 5.0 modular 4 valve engines. The oil pumps on these Ford 5.0 modular engines are mounted on the front of the block and driven directly by the crankshaft. This design is OK but it does subject the oil pump to all the harmonics that the crankshaft sees. The stock oil pumps use weak powdered metal gears in them and they tend to fracture and break when subject to harmonics. Broken oil pump gears will cause a loss in oil pressure and when you lose oil pressure serve engine damage can occur. We have seen several cases of Ford 5.0 modular engines with superchargers added to them that has suffered from oil pump failures. Based on this we strongly recommended these Powerstorm billet oil pump gears be installed. However we do not recommend putting new gears in a worn pump. So if you have a 5.0 4 valve modular engine and are supercharging, rebuilding or repairing it we highly recommend you replace the entire oil pump assemble. If you want a complete new pump with Powerstorm billet gears installed already just order part number is LPP701110. If you have any questions feel free to call us at 313-561-5500

Broken oil pump gears will cause a loss in oil pressure and when you lose oil pressure serve engine damage can occur. This failure is most commonly seen in supercharged engines but can also happen due to detonation from bad fuel or a incorrect tune as well. Based on this we strongly recommended these Powerstorm billet oil pump gears be installed before a supercharger is added to Ford 5.0 modular engine. However we do not recommend putting new gears in a worn pump. So if you are adding a supercharger, rebuilding or repairing a Ford 5.0 modular engine we highly recommend you replace the entire oil pump assemble. If you want a complete new pump with Powerstorm billet gears installed already just order part number LPP701110.
