Do I Need a New Oil Pump?

fyi, if its any help to you guys.... i went through maybe 4-5 oil pumps with my KA24E. when you hit high speeds and are cornering the oil sloshes away from the pickup. there were times that after hitting some heavy turns, i would hear my lifters knocking after the turn. i would pull over, idle for a bit.. it would go away, then carry on driving. a bit of this and the oil pump would be trashed. this is how you know you need a baffled oil pan, when you push your car to that particular limit

and here you're complaining about ONE oil pump. change the fucking pump, move on.

I already ordered one, thanks for the advice though.. On another note someone decided to break into my car last night and steal the faceplate off my radio, so looks like I'm gonna be needing one of those too.

I my self have bought a new oil pump on my ka24e hoping that similar issues would go away. and intalled a oil pressure gauge to monitor whats going on when it starts acting up. It helped. but didnt do as much as I expected. Takes a little longer than it should on start up to build pressure than it should. and when the car gets warm enough to make the oil thiner the rockers start bleeding out. I ordered a HV oil pump last week and am eagerly wiating for its arrival. Im gonna try that out and see how much less my NEW timing chain rattles and hydro rockers bleed out. Xcessive performance makes a baffle you can add to the ka24e Im very interested in it.
