(Starion g54b(turbo) oil pump VERSUS (mightymax g54b(Naturally aspirated) oil pump

[MrMitsu]

Hello everyone, does anybody know if there is any difference between the turbo starion oil pump and the mighty max oil pump? Thanks!

Yes they are totally different - 2 different pumps and 2 different pickups. That and the starquest pump is 2 to 3 times the price of the regular 2.6 pump - they are not interchangeable.

I see the difference now that I look closer at the pics, they look identical at a glance. I'm assuming the starion pump has a higher volume rating. Thanks for the reply.

Your 87 truck should already have a higher volume pump in place, I am using one on my 86 which I replaced out for the 87 pump.

starion is a HV pump, NA pump doesnt pump as much, they use a completely different gasket, and oil pickup goes into the pump instead of the block
