• Servicing a specific Cadillac oil pump application

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the existing oil pump casting and front timing cover before ordering. Match the drive gear tooth count, gasket pattern, and application details to the original pump configuration. Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly during assembly and inspect the pump housing for wear before reuse. This kit is specific fit, so confirm the vehicle application and pump design before installation.

Quality Assurance

Melling recommends replacing the complete oil pump when practical, but this repair kit is offered for rebuilders who choose to reuse the original pump casting or front timing cover. The K-58C is built around application-specific components for a targeted rebuild.
