My good friend blew an oil pump in his '01 Mustang Cobra. He had just put in a Kenny Belle supercharger and had it for a week and a half. Tiny shavings from his oil pump exploding went all up in his engine. He plans on just getting a whole rotating assembly for it and an upgraded oil pump. Maybe larger pistons because they might have to bore out the cylinders some if the walls are pitted/scratched. He's hoping that's all he'll need, the shop is taking apart the upper half of the motor to inspect it, too. That'll be done by Friday.

So I'm wondering if anybody has hook ups on parts. Not necessarily upgraded parts, stock or greater quality will do, except for the upgraded oil pump. Anybody got a hook up?

TIA.

Dont go back with a stock rotating assembly. It's on borrowed time at anything over 375 rwhp. The stock heads on it are pretty good so if he has the money for a KB s/c why not just order a built short block?

All his money went to the supercharger. The crank can handle 900hp+.

Its a Ford. Core parts are easy and cheap to find. Short block from Ford might be best plan tho.

If the block is messed up any then just get rid of it and tell him to give MMR a call. Btw I have the MMR900 and it'll handle anything I can throw at it without further upgrading my fuel system.
