The pump housing seems to have small cracks everywhere. Are they just casting marks? Is this normal do they all look like this? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you would typically see this from most standard oil pump housings on the Barras? If you got this for your own or a customers car from atomic you wouldn’t think twice about installing it?

EgoXR6Turbo Member 60 Member For: 6y 1m 12d Posted 05/07/21 07:35 AM Author Share Posted 05/07/21 07:35 AM Are the aluminum pump housings pretty solid provided they have billet pump gears and backing plate. What’s the purpose of going to something like a steel. I am assuming this is for huge HP motors. I guess my question is if the pump is re firbed with gears and backing plate the factory aluminum body is not going to crack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
