Upgrade Coyote Oil Pump Gears for Reliability | TSS Billet Oil Pump Gears

The Importance of Upgrading Your Coyote Mustang's Oil Pump Gears

If you're the proud owner of a Ford Coyote engine powered Mustang GT, you know these high-revving V8s are capable of tremendous horsepower. However, in stock form, the Coyote's oil pump gears can be a weak link and lead to catastrophic engine failure if pushed too hard at high RPMs. Upgrading to a high volume oil pump gear set from TSS can help ensure your Coyote lives a long, healthy life.

The Problem With Stock Coyote Oil Pumps

The Achilles heel of the Coyote engine is the OEM oil pump gears. Ford designed them for longevity in a stock engine seeing no more than 6,500 RPMs. However, Coyote engines are commonly modified to produce 700+ horsepower and spun well over 7,000 RPMs regularly. At these extreme speeds, the thin, sintered iron oil pump gears can fail and send metal debris throughout the engine, leading to complete failure.

The OEM gears become unreliable over 6,500 RPMs for two reasons. First, the narrow gear teeth lack the strength to handle high RPM speeds and high volume oil flow demands of a built engine. Second, the press-fit gears have a tendency to slip on the oil pump shaft at high RPMs, leading to wear and gear teeth shearing off.

Why You Need an Aftermarket Oil Pump Gear Set

To maintain proper oil pressure and volume at high RPMs, an upgraded billet oil pump gear set is mandatory. Aftermarket gears from TSS feature wider gear teeth that are stronger and engineered to maintain a tight interference fit on the pump shaft without any chance of slippage.

TSS offers standard volume and high volume oil pump gear sets for Coyote engines made from tough 8620 or 1018 steel. The wider, beefier gears can handle extreme RPMs and horsepower levels without failing. They also deliver more consistent oil pressure and volume to protect your engine during aggressive street/strip use.

Benefits of a TSS Oil Pump Gear Upgrade

Here are some of the benefits of installing a TSS billet oil pump gear set in your Coyote:

• Prevents oil pump gear failure at high RPMs
• Delivers consistent oil pressure and volume
• Handles up to 800+ horsepower
• Works with stock or ported oil pumps
• Drop-in installation with no machining required
• Better idler gear to housing clearance
• Fits 2011-2021 Coyote engines
• Available in standard and high volume sets
• Made in the USA

TSS oil pump gears are an affordable yet crucial upgrade to ensure your modified Coyote remains healthy no matter how hard you push it. The quality billet construction can handle high RPMs and horsepower without the risk of catastrophic failure due to weak OEM oil pump components.

Choosing the Right TSS Oil Pump Gears for Your Coyote

TSS offers oil pump gears for both Gen 1 and Gen 2 Coyote engines in standard volume and high volume sets to suit different builds.

For lightly modified Coyotes making less than 600HP, the standard volume gears are recommended. They increase flow about 10-15% over stock.

For more heavily built engines over 600HP, the high volume set provides 25% more flow for extra protection at high RPMs. The high volume gears are better suited for boosted applications also.

Made from tough American steel and CNC machined in-house, you can trust TSS oil pump gears to keep your Coyote properly lubricated. Never worry about oil pump failure again and enjoy peace of mind knowing your Coyote is protected.

Keep Your High-Performance Coyote Properly Lubricated

Don't take chances with the weak factory oil pump gears in your Coyote engine. Upgrade to a TSS billet oil pump gear set to maintain proper oil flow and pressure at extreme RPMs and horsepower levels. TSS gears are affordable insurance to ensure your Coyote lives a long, healthy life!

FAQs

What causes the OEM oil pump gears to fail at high RPMs?

Two factors lead to oil pump gear failure in high RPM applications. First, the narrow gear teeth lack the strength to handle the stresses. Second, the press-fit gears tend to slip on the pump shaft at high speeds leading to wear and shearing.

Do I have to modify my oil pump to install TSS gears?

No modification or machining of your existing oil pump is required. TSS gears are a direct drop-in replacement for the OEM gears. The billet construction and tight tolerances provide a secure fit.

Will TSS pump gears work with a ported oil pump?

Yes, TSS oil pump gears are fully compatible with both stock and ported oil pumps. The gears will take advantage of the improved flow from a ported pump.

What material are TSS oil pump gears made from?

TSS uses only the best American sourced 8620 or 1018 steel to CNC machine their pump gears in-house. This provides high strength and reliability.

Do I need the high volume or standard gears?

For engines under 600HP, the standard volume gears will provide sufficient flow and pressure. Over 600HP, choose the high volume set for 25% more oil flow and better protection.
