While swapping out my oil pan & pickup, I broke the cheap-a$$ pot metal housing on the oil pump. So now I need a new one. I went to Napa and bought this one: https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/SEP22441118 but now I'm second-guessing that decision.

Any body got a favorite oil pump for a Ford 302? And should I replace the oil pump shaft while I'm doing? This is for a street machine, though I might do an autocross just to find out what it takes / feels like to spin.

I've used Precision Pumps http://stores.precisionoilpumps.com/

Basically a smoothed out Melling or similar. Has worked well for me. Not sure on the drive shaft, ARP maybe? Sorry, can't remember.
