Product Details
Powerstorm Billet Oil Pump Gears by Livernois Motorsports®. This Powerstorm product is billet steel oil pump gears for the Ford 4.6 3 valve engines and all the 5.4 & 5.8 engines. The oil pumps on these Ford modular engines are mounted on the front of the block and driven directly by the crankshaft. This design is OK but it does subject the oil pump to all the harmonics that the crankshaft sees.

There have seen several cases of Ford modular engines with superchargers added to them that has suffered from oil pump failures. Based on this Powerstorm strongly recommended these Powerstorm billet oil pump gears be installed. However Powerstorm do not recommend putting new gears in a worn pump.

The stock oil pumps use weak powdered metal gears in them and they tend to fracture and break when subject to harmonics. Broken oil pump gears will cause a loss in oil pressure and when you lose oil pressure serve engine damage can occur. This failure is most commonly seen in supercharged engines but can also happen due to detonation from bad fuel or a incorrect tune as well. Based on this they strongly recommended these Powerstorm billet oil pump gears be installed before a supercharger is added to Ford modular engine. However they do not recommend putting new gears in a worn pump. So if you are adding a supercharger, rebuilding or repairing a Ford modular engine they highly recommend you replace the entire oil pump assemble.
