BCBC M295HV Engine Oil Pump

High-Volume Oil Pump for GM Applications

This Melling engine oil pump, part number M295HV, is a high-volume rotary pump built for GM V8 applications that need stronger oil delivery and stable pressure. It is made in the USA and uses improved-design components to support dependable lubrication in demanding service.

Key Features

• High-volume, high-pressure oil pump with 18% additional volume over stock
• Cast aluminum housing with aluminum cover and rust-preventative finish
• Rotary pump design with crankshaft drive type
• Powdered metal rotor and machined gears for close-tolerance operation
• Gasket, seal, O-ring, gears, and pump cover included in the assembly
• Individually tested for pressure and flow under operating conditions

Detailed Product Overview

The M295HV is engineered to increase oil flow and improve idle oil pressure, making it a practical choice for performance and heavy-duty street use. Melling uses precision-ground end plates, close-tolerance gear machining, and gerotor technology to help maintain efficient pump operation. This part cross-references DNJ OP3165HV and EM-1296 for the same application.

Compatible with a wide range of Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, Pontiac, Hummer, and Saab applications, this oil pump is commonly selected for engines that need added volume without changing the stock-style layout. It is a strong fitment option for Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 2500 HD, and Chevrolet Camaro applications where consistent oil delivery matters. The M295HV part number is also useful when searching for replacement coverage across GM truck and performance platforms.

What This Part Helps Address

• Low oil pressure at idle
• Reduced oil circulation in high-demand operation
• Wear concerns from inconsistent lubrication
• Oil delivery needs in stock-style replacement builds
• Pressure stability requirements in GM truck and performance engines

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine application and oil pump clearance before installation. This pump uses a crankshaft drive type and a 4-hole mounting pattern, with a 0.875-inch inlet size and high-volume, high-pressure configuration. Confirm the engine setup matches the listed fitment, including the 2014 GMC Yukon and 2014 GMC Yukon XL 1500 cast iron cylinder block note where applicable. The M295HV is intended for direct replacement use in the listed applications, and the included gasket and seal help support a proper installation.

Quality Assurance

Melling manufactures this oil pump in the USA and tests each unit for pressure and flow to verify operation under conditions that simulate real engine use. The improved-design construction, precision-machined components, and production standards support consistent quality control for the M295HV.
