Oil pump

How can you tell a high pressure/high capacity oil pump.

Engine is 1.3 x flow.

I have 5 pumps with a variety of numbers stamped on them.

I don't think that there's an obvious way, as the outside casings are identical.

It's all down to the size and/or type of rotors, and the strength of the spring on the bypass valve.
