I am glad I found this thread and look forward to watching your progress! I am actually going through a similar process of building the car to be more bullet proof on the track.
One question I did have was regarding the oil pump and oil pump gears. I plan on purchasing the Boundary Engineering pump from Z1 with the billet pump cover. There are options to include shims to increase the oil pressure anywhere from +10psi to +30psi. Is this something you did as well? Or did you not find it necessary? I understand that some of the higher HP or forced induction applications my need to run higher oil pressure. Is there a need to run higher pressures for track applications with basic bolt ons? Are there any downsides to running the higher oil pressures if it is overkill for the application?
