The HV pump is cheap insurance. It ensures you have plenty of pressure on a well aged motor that's pushed hard, even when the oil gets a little too hot. All you sacrifice is a little fuel economy.
This statement is a misnomer and false and something people should understand and get correct.......

All a high volume oil pump does is pump 30% (depends on the pump,some put out 25% more) more oil than a "standard volume" oil pump.....The oil pressure remains the same with either a high volume or standard volume pump, the only thing that changes is the volume of oil pumped!!!!!!!

In another way it is basically the same as if you have a one inch water hose hooked to a faucet at your house and then remove it and hook up a 1.25 inch water hose to the same faucet, you don't get more water pressure, you only get more water due to the larger hose..........
