Aftermarket oil pumps ?

I want to replace my oil pump -1997 D16Y8- new ones are $150 + up at the stores but I have found a few new ones on ebay for around $40 - Brands that I am not familiar with. I realize how vital an oil pump is.
Anyone have experience with using a knock-off brand?
thanks!

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Re: Aftermarket oil pumps ?

First question is, WHY would you want to replace an oil pump?
