Race Pumps

1991-Up Sportsters

Pro-Flow Racing Pumps

The Pro Flow oil pump for 1991-up Sportsters was developed by Zippers according to Buz Buzzellie's Sportster Performance Handbook. 15)
Billed as compact Cad/Cam design, made of 6061 aluminum, O-ring sealing throughout and modular construction.
The ProFlow oil pumps and accessories for XLs, BTs and TCs in the year 2000 at least were sold thru Zippers Performance as well as Zodiac International B.V. (The Netherlands)

These pumps are no longer in production. 16) There were two versions for Sportsters; a 3 stage and a 4 stage.
In 2000, the pump was redesigned with improvements, one of which was the addition of an oil strainer cap / cover over the cam chest port. 17)
The drive gear and gerotor systems were improved for less drag while maintaining reportedly superior scavenge and feed rates.
