To the OP, any new info/updates on this project? I am interested in any FE sledpullers that I can learn from. Currently pulling a 1975 F-250 4x4 in the 6500lbs stock gas class with United Pullers, Rocky Mountain pullers and Live-A-Little Productions. I have done a little bracket racing and sand drags but pulling is the ultimate rush!

If it was me.... I would use a STD oil pump for your app. Running 6,000 rpms for an extended amount of time. If it was just a street FE (90% street and the other 10% at the strip). Then I would run a HV Oil pump. Just because of the idling around. Help cool valve springs and what not. JMHO
