Default Burton oil pump

I got one earlier in the year and had to send it back as it was not the best it looked cheep and the dowel on the bottom end would not line up to the pump so sent it back had to wait for my money back and did not give me my postage back...... So I got one from Matt Lewis and was spot on and was not much more as well

My engine was built with a second hand oil pump and its been fine for 5k miles so far! There's been a few horror stories about the burton ones so I would steer clean just in case
