Hello,
I have a 2010 Mustang Gt that recently had the motor go out. We bought a 2000 Romeo short block that is bored. 020 over and added an MMR hurricane oil pump. We put the 3v heads on it after having them machined, Ford racing intake, ford racing throttle body, ford racing hot rod cams, steeda CAI, long tube headers and x- pipe. A local race shop installed it and upon starting it, very low oil pressure, metal in the filter and spun a bearing. Pulled engine again, sent to engine shop and they find nothing wrong that would have caused it and are putting new bearings in. They are suggesting installing a ford racing HV oil pump instead of the MMR one as a precaution as they see no other issue. We have a small fortune in this car now as we have had the shop take the motor out twice essentially. Please help with suggestions as we are out of ideas...
