x10!

The Kaase pump really is a good investment for many reasons,
1. Its very beefy and won't break off like some of the others
2.It is very well engineered
3. Its a good sleep aid (no worries about it's performance)

anyone have a part number on the kasse pump??
thanks

Call Lem at BF Evans Ford he had 3 or 4 of them on the shelf last week.

B.F.Evans Raceparts...1-877-611-2613 ask for shawn in parts!

Called... I'm assuming its nothing like a $40 mellings pump... the kasse is $250.
Just wondering what is so much different... I am planning on getting one but just want to know y you guys like them so much....
Thanks

The Kasse pump is much better engineered and much stronger.

If possible, this weekend I'll try to stream or upload some video from a previous tech seminar about the Kasse pump.

that would be great!!
thanks

Break one of those $40 dollar one and trash everything you put in that engine and you will know why we like the Kaase pump.....

X2 it sounds expensive untill one of the $50 pumps cracks and causes Thousands in damage.......

If you're looking for lightweight then the Kaase pump isn't for you because, it weighs twice as much as a Melling oil pomp.
Besides the fact that the Kaase pump is cast from DUCTILE IRON instead of regular CAST IRON and the inlet fills the pumping element from BOTH sides not just one side; the pump pedestal, (the part that breaks), which bolts to the block is about 3" wide by 1 1/4" thick and a Melling is about 1 1/8" and near round.

you can find peterson pumps used for pretty cheap considering what they do.

72 puller,,, thanks..

Guys i'm not looking for cheaper at all, and dont care about weight. i just wanted to know the difference...

for what it is worth when I changed I noticed the oil PSI was now steady. where before it fluctuated.... the pump is stout some cranks need to have the pump slightly clearanced. but no biggy.... and you sleep with piece of mind knowing you have it in there vs the Melling.....
