Forged CVH info .
Forged CVH question ...
Can anyone shed some light on this ..ive provided a brand new Genuine Ford oil pump for my engine build to the builder ..ive just been reading a old post on PF and people are saying to fit a uprated spring in the oil pump and a cosworth oil switch . ..is this something I should do before its fitted ? Safe and needed ?
Thanks Mat.

Cosworth oil switch has a higher trigger point so gives you precious seconds extra should your oil pressure plummet so a good investment regardless.
The spring raises the pressure slightly (you can shim a standard one to the same effect) - a well build CVH wont need this IMO but ive used them on tired cvhs and a mix of genuine/non-gen pumps to give me a few extra psi at idle

you could use an Accusump if you are worried:

mine has been in more than 12 years now and is fine, works well if you are taking the car out for a blast or track day.
