RockAuto Oil Pump?

[Austen Leach]

I'm looking at replacing my oil pump in my 2004 Tahoe 5.3 Flex Fuel and I've been shopping around for a while for a high volume oil pump and the cheapest Melling I found was on Amazon and it costed $105. Well looking around on RockAuto for gaskets and other little things I might need they have an UltraPower high volume listed for only $53.79. Even with shipping that's pretty close to being half off. Would any of y'all trust it? Or go with the Melling?

Folks here will chime in on the UltraPower high volume oil pump quality and endurance, if someone has specific experience with that brand. Regarding Rock Auto, many of us on the Forum use Rock Auto often for parts, so as a supplier, Rock Auto is good.

i use rockauto alot it usually has cheaper stuff not always but most of the time. as far as the option on the oil pump id go mellings. critical engine components isnt the place to cheap out. buy oem or a good known brand take the hit to your wallet and keep your peace of mind.
