Modified Revup Oil pump!!
#43
Alright guys, I know you all are wanting some kind of update. Nothing big yet, but we are back working on the gears. Starting to get some use out of my hand after the surgery. Still going to take some time. I don't want you guys thinking this project is a bust. Definitely more to this thing than just drawing it up and cutting the parts.
Sn: Will be working on some billet valve covers as well. That way we can get rid of those plastic covers we have. So that's the two projects I have going for the 350z community.

EZG, thanks man. Go next week to the doc to see the progress.
On topic, the outer gear is drawn, so now all we have to do is draw inner gear. Get the proto made and test, then make necessary changes. Slow process with everything going on, but at least we moving forward and not stagnate.

Oh okay, actually what we are thinking about doing is making the tube detachable. That way it's high to fill the oil and when done take it off and screw the cap on. That way it works with different intake manifolds. As for the AN provisions, more than likely it will be -10AN, if people want to use small size or stock like plumbing then they can with an adapter. We'd supply the hosing connecting the two covers in the front.

Hey guys,
We are still pushing forward with the billet gears. We finally got the inner gear done. So, next step is to get it over and program the machines to cut one out. I know it's taking a little time to get them done, but we are not giving up. Both the outer and inner gears are both drawn. The one below is the inner. Look forward to having more updates for you guys soon.

We will be testing these before we ever release them to public. Rather make sure with my own motor, than to have someone put up their motor. I have a good team of engineers working on this. Especially with choosing the right material to use for this application.

Sounds good, when I have all the info, this thread will be the first to know. I'm glad we are not too much further from being able to release the gears. Just have to test them now and see they act at high rpms.
To sum it up, we looked at the other offerings, learned from those and looking forward to seeing how well they perform against the other pumps. We will be using a variety procedures to make sure we release nothing but the best. Pretty excited to see this starting to come to fruition.
I'll keep you guys updated.

Finally done: Billet gears and modified oil pumps
Well, we finally accomplished what we set out with the oil pumps for the 350z De/Revup. Thanks to those of you who waited this long for an update. The first sets of pumps have already shipped.
Now that these are done, I can move forward, to work on some new ideas.
It's been one heck of a process, but I'm glad we finally made this a reality, with getting these pumps done.

Sorry guys, things have taken a turn for the worst for a little it looks. The plan is still moving forward just not as fast as I'd like it.
I was in a motorcycle accident a few weeks back and broke my wrist. I have a good bit recovery to overcome. I do have someone working on the drawings for me while I'm down.
Thanks for patients and know I'm still working to make this a possibility.

What did you accomplish again? What tests were run?
