[Amc-list] Full flow oil pumps on the 195.6hv in an early American

[Tom Jennings <tomj@xxxxxxx>]

Joe, there was a (partial flow motor) oil pump in that pile of sticky 
stuff that came with the car! I swear I'd looked in there before...

So I have that rusty full-flow pump, a partial-flow pump, and an 
aftermarket remote oil filter kit, and a 195.6ohv in a 63 American.

So!

* The stock (partial flow pump could be modified to output it's oil to 
the pump cover with a drilled/tapped hole and a 90 fitting, and plugging 
the bottom of the pump, or the block. From there, to a hose to the 
remote filter, and oil returns down to the 1/4" NPT hole that's about 1" 
above the factory inlet to the main gallery. Would be just fine, but the 
mods don't fill me with joy.

* The full flow pump, with integral filter. Will not fit of course in 
this chassis, well known problem. The remote filter screw-on adapter has 
the same problem as the oil filter -- too tall.

But my original idea, the full-flow pump, with the adapter removed, and 
the two ports enlarged and tapped for hoses, would work just fine. Would 
  require lifting or dropping the motor to yank the pump, otherwise it 
coudl be done in-car.

I'll do A if I this full-flow pump is junk and I cannot find a 
replacement; or B if I can. I'll do this on the new motor.
