I run a V8 oil pump on my Model B with an otherwise stock oiling system. The pressure is a very small amount higher because there is still the hole in the front of the oil galley that feeds the dipper tray. That's what I wanted, more oil to the tray. I turn 4600 RPM at hill climbs with no worries! No downside.
