THIS PUMP IS YET ANOTHER ENTRY into the ranks of
lightweight products for racing. Using aerospace technology, it is designed
to stand up to speeds of more than 10.000 rpm.
  Among its many new features is a weight reduction of up to 5 pounds
compared to other high-performance pumps. Much of the weight reduction
has resulted from the new gear design. The gears are manufactured from
7075 T-651 aluminum and feature a seven tooth gear instead of the nine tooth
gear in most other designs.
  In addition to the weight reduction, these precision-ground gears
provide greater efficiency because of their ability to move higher volumes
of oil through the pump. Based on a comparison to other designs, this new
Razor Performance pump boasts a 25-percent higher rate of efficiency.
Features
-The pump is internally ported to allow for single line outlet, which
provides service to all scavenge areas. The design means a manifold is no
longer necessary.
-Brackets are built into the pump, so mounting is simple and easy.
-Fittings are available in AN10-16 sizes and are anodized for extra durability.
-Bearings are designed to withstand speeds of up to 20,000 rpm.
In a side-by-side comparison, the difference in design of the gears is clear,
The nine-tooth gear on the left is standard in most pump designs. The gear on
the right is the seven-tooth aluminum gear that is the standard for the Razor
Performance Product Pump. This gear design results in a significant weight
reduction and improved efficiency numbers.

The internal seal of the pump is accomplished with an O-ring. Made from
aerospace-quality Viton, the O-ring will form a nonflaking permanent seal for
the unit.
Configurations
  In addition to the dry-sump unit, the same basic design is employed
in producing other configurations for this pump. It is also available as an
external wet-sump unit as well as a differential and transmission pump.
Applications
  Razor's new pump has been approved for competition in NASCAR Winston Cup,
NASCAR Busch Grand National, NASCAR Craftsman Truck, ARCA, ASA, CASCAR, World
of Outlaws, IHRA, NHRA series.
