GZMS Vacuum pumps like to see a little bit of oil to make them last and on a street car that will be seeing extended idling and low speed operation, a normal racing pump may have excessive wear due to lack of lubrication. For engines that are "tight", otherwise have little to no blowby and are setup with street type clearances, you don't want to run the regular race pumps for best pump life.
We've solved this issue with the GZ Motorsports Street Vacuum Pump Kit which includes a breather tank with a special baffle that recirculates oil through pump, preventing it from running dry. In addition we have modified our racing vacuum pumps with an extra fitting for the recirculated oil to return to the pump and use extra tough modified Rulon wipers. It constantly circulates oil from the breather tank to the pump to allow you to operate a vacuum pump on the street, even when faced with low speed idling conditions.
Three different pump models are available for street applications. For smaller low volume engines the VP100 Budget Sportman Pump in either a black Zylan coating or polished aluminum is available. For medium sized applications, our VP101A polished aluminum sportsman pump works great, and for large engines the polished aluminum VP103 pro pump generates plenty of vacuum. All pumps have been modified for street use with a variety of money saving options.
The basic kit includes a full bracket kit for mounting on either side of motor in upper or lower locations, a fixed single groove crank pulley and a vacuum pump v-belt pulley (your choice of vacuum pump pulley diameters), our BT3 breather tank with baffles and filter, 3 feet of red oil return hose.
Available Options include Hose and fitting Kits, Crank Mandrel Kit, additional Crank Mandrel Pulleys and a GZMS Vacuum Control Valve.
