Oil pump change after AFM/DOD delete?

Hi folks , iam curious about my melling oil pump standard volume M295 ( standard pressure and volume) i ordered it and shipped already by next week i will work on DOD delete with TSP stock replacement kit with stock camshaft included

It does really matter ?! Should i replace it with high pressure or its fine !? Any advice would be greatly appreciated

From what I understand, With no DoD/AFM or VVT, the stock pressure/volume oil pump is correct.

i will just retain the VVT

I've read the vvt takes more oil volume to operate than the afm. afm basically a dead head system. not much oil flows past anything except thru lifter internal tolerances when active and nothing extra when not in afm mode. also something about an aluminum block gaining more bearing clearance than a iron block when heated up? so while high pressure isn't needed, most I've read and hear seem to recommend a high volume pump since you're in there at the time and it can't hurt.

With VVT, I would also go high volume.

You will need the higher volume pump if you are keeping VVT.. No question !
