Oil Pump Removal

[LotusEngineeringBuff]

No idea. And at almost 1am I don't feel like going to the basement to take a pic . That will have to wait until tomorrow. Today that is.

i can also say YES, BUT my frame has a slight mod which allows a repair/removal: i have a brian hart dry sump pump however?! sandy

What i can remember you remove engine mounting carb side.
LOWER on carb side so when you extract the Oil pump it passes under the chassis flange.
This is with Lotus chassis

Glad you got it out. Is it a standard oil pump our high flow?

I believe the high flow has a much thicker cover that could cause more difficulty removing the pump with engine in...

The thicker end cover on a high capacity pump can make getting the pump out harder as it can foul the chassis flange after the steering column is removed. Easiest to remove the end cover before pulling the pump and reinstall the cover after replacing the pump on the engine.
