The Weakest Link
You are only as strong as your weakest link, and on the Ford Boss 260, 290 & 315 engines this is the oil pump gears.
Herrod Motorsport has the fix for the powdered metal factory Ford oil pump gears with a replacement oil pump fitted with Billet gears.
The Billet oil pump gears eliminate the worries of oil pump failure, which when fail, can cause massive amounts of damage to pistons, valves and camshafts.
So to save on a costly engine rebuild, fit a Herrod Billet Oil Pump. At $625, this is relatively cheap insurance.
