FAQ
What engine does the Melling M-22FHV fit?
The M-22FHV is a replacement oil pump for the Oldsmobile 260/350/455 in 1977-1980 applications. Confirm your engine family and pickup configuration before ordering.

Do I need a high-volume oil pump?
High-volume pumps move more oil per revolution than a stock pump, which helps engines with added bearing clearance, remote coolers, or high-rpm use. Pair it with a windage-controlled, properly baffled pan and adequate oil capacity.
Does this pump include a pickup tube?
Melling lists this pump without a pickup in the box unless otherwise noted. Confirm you have the correct pickup for your pan and block, and check pickup-to-pan clearance during assembly.
