X3. No need for a high volume unless you're running an oil cooler, turbo, etc, that needs it, otherwise you'll just create drag and windage. Take a standard volume pump, disassemble it all the way (including the freeze plug that holds the pressure spring in), clean up all the casting flash with a Dremel, or die grinder, and chamfer all the ports. When you put it back together, stack two 3/8" washers as shims in the freeze plug for the spring. That should give you about 80 psi oil pressure cold, and about that at cruising speed at operating temp.
