Oil pump and bolt on screen and pickup
Hello. I am at the point where I am going to replace my oil pump and pickup and screen as a "MAW" but since I don't weld, I was thinking of looking for one with a bolt on screen. Any suggestions for part numbers and brands? Is there a reason NOT to get a bolt on screen? Should I even be thinking of replacing the oil pump and pickup as a MAW or is that silly?
Thanks guys!

I dont like the pressed on screen. I hear stories that they do fall out and while you are driving the oil pump wont pump the oil and it will damage your motor.

Another point of view.
How many guys actually know of an OEM Olds oil pump failure?
How many guys actually know of the press in tube actually falling out?
I bet if you take that oil pump cover off and inspect the gears and bore you will find them in surpisingly good shape.
Can't beat OEM parts if still usable. That new pump is from china you decide.
I always reuse them after inspection and have never had a problem.
