This product is billet steel oil pump gears for Ford 4.6L 3-valve engines and all 5.4L and 5.8 engines. The oil pumps on the Ford 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 and tend to fracture and break when subject to harmonics. Broken oil pump gears will cause a loss in oil pressure, which can cause serve engine damage. We have seen several cases of Ford modular engines with superchargers added that have suffered from oil pump failures. We strongly recommend installing this oil pump before a supercharger is added. If you have a supercharged 5.4L or 5.8L engine or are rebuilding or repairing a Ford modular engine, we highly recommend you replace the oil pump and gears with this product.
If you already have a new pump, Livernois billet gears can be purchased separately but we do not recommend putting new gears in a worn pump. For the billet steel gears alone, the part number is LPP701109.
