oil metering pump swap?

Just wondering if it was possible to throw this on a 85 GS 12a instead of a 13b?

not a direct swap so rebuild it...it's easy to do and not expensive

here's a quote from our FAQ:

and in no time you can get your OMP looking like the following:



click the pic to go to brownmound's website referring to rebuilding an OMP

BTW - this is a pic of a GSL-SE OMP...yours will look slightly different

I wanted to rebuild mine as well, but Lowe Performance doesn't seem to have a website that works anymore. Anyone else have a supplier of the rebuild kit?

Lowe still supplies the kit, you just have to *use the search function* and come up with their phone number, which has been posted here before

I'll try to find it for you.

Edit: found it... one search
