Tuned and race engines put more strain on the internal components than standard engines and need an uprated oil pump, but even standard engines can benefit from having a higher oil pressure and plentiful supply of oil so it makes sense to replace the original pump with an uprated version when you overhaul your engine.

Burton Power is now offering a high pressure, high capacity oil pump for the SOHC 1.6-litre and 2-litre Pinto engines that will give a 23 per cent increase in flow volume and greater oil pressure.

The uprated pump is approximately 5.2mm taller than the standard oil pump and is suitable for almost all vehicles that use the Pinto engines.
The pump can be ordered as part number FT1055A and retails at £68.95 inc VAT.
