To keep a level playing field,
I ported the pump that was in my Claret.
This way the pump has the same wear, use and now,
IF there is a differance we will learn somthing,
maybe.

After an overnight drying period,
(so that the Gray sealer does not travel into any passages),
I will disconnect the injectors,
spin the engine untill oil pressure builds,
then start it and report back.

Naturally I am changing other things, like adding a modified timing belt guide, relocated idler pulley bracket, machined pulley/roller, different crankshaft pulley, etc. to support another project.
