For `57 `58 Nailhead we offer
replacement vanes for the vacuum
pump that is piggy backed to the oil
pump. Please inquire.
Over 20 Years of experience and a thorough understanding of the Buick
oiling system have resulted in the best oil pump assemblies in the entire
Buick community. Famous for their high level of craftsmanship and oil
delivery, the TA High Performance Oil Pump Assemblies are regarded by
many as a mandatory part of any engine rebuild. Wether a restoration,
street performance or for race, the TA unit provides the oil pressure and
volume necessary to ensure proper delivery through the entire RPM range,
doing so without increasing the load placed upon the camshaft. Assemblies
for 198,215,225,231,252,300,340,350,400,430 455 are available. They
include new timing cover, pump cover, gear set, booster plate, adjustable
regulator and all the special machine work and hand work such as port
matching and gear prep. Comes fully assembled and packed with
petroleum jelly ready to install onto your block.
TA also offers a performance assembly for the `62-`66 401 425
Nailheads. TA starts with a new pump assembly and completely goes
through it resulting in much better volume and pressure than a standard
pump.
TA can also overhaul your oil pump
assembly, this is ideal for applications
were new housings are no longer
available such as with pre 1962
Nailheads, TA can even overhaul oil
pumps with integral vacuum pumps.

The oil pump cover is another key component of the oiling system. The
pressure relief valve, oil filter by-pass and oil filter inlet and outlet passages are
all incorporated in this small but important piece. Replace when excessively
worn, when the bypass is damaged or when the housing itself is physically
damaged. Please note that over the years the clock position has changed slightly, but are fully
compatible with all earlier designs.

Adjustable Oil Pressure Regulator
Its best to maintain between 10 and 15 lbs of oil pressure for every 1000 rpm. If your pressure readings are on the low side
the TA 1502 Adjustable Oil Pressure Regulator may be just what you need. This key part replaces the relief valve nut and spring
(next to the oil filter). Turning the adjuster screw in will increase oil pressure and backing out the
screw will lower the pressure. Recommended for any oil pump re-build and much safer than
using heavy weight (color coded) springs. Fits 198-215-225-231-252-300-340-350-400-430-
455. NOTE: Does not improve pressure at Idle, proper pump set up and TA 1510 will improve
pressure at idle.
