Misc 2L questions

[patrick.bureau at gmail.com (Patrick Bureau)]

Congrats on the 2L youll love the torque on it (I did!)

The power module is not that worth it...

Remove the hydraulic oil pump and insert a 36mm regular oil pump
(stock is 30mm I think) and you will have a good clean engine well
oiled and great pressure but not over pressured for the solid lifters.

If you need to I can provide you with a part number. 

*sighs* I miss my 3a/jh engine....

So this new rocco I picked up has a 2L bubble block
(3A) w/ Eurospec solid lifter head (272 cam).  Nice power.  

I have a few questions, though.

1) Would an Autotech power module be of any benefit or would it be
overkill?  Somehow I think overkill, but just asking.

2) This block has the OEM BIG oil pump in it and is driving the oil
pressure waaaay high.  I was told it might be best to back off and get
a regular 1.8L oil pump since it is a solid lifter head.  Can I get
comments on that?  I am concerned about the head seals and so forth at
this point.  It maxes out the oil pressure gauge at 5bar at about 4K
rpm.
