Default Oil pump capability

I'm doing my build on my motor which has been taking a lot longer than expected. I have all the parts listed here. I am adding an oil cooler, oil accumulator/ pre luber, UFO (I'll explain that later), and a remote filter that will use a full size Fram HP1 or HP4 race filter. All of this is going to increase oil capacity by at least 1.5 qts. I was wondering if anyone else had a setup like this. I believe the question I'm trying to ask is does the stock oil pump have the flow capability/capacity to handle all of the extra lines and resistance from the setup. Everything will be fairly free flowing but when going into this territory I figure I could come on here and see if anyone has experience with this or can give the specs on the oil pump. Hopefully a managed to write a coherrent inquiry if not can someone explain to me what I'm trying to ask. My builder told me to post this in the hopes of one of the S2K gurus coming to the rescue before trial and error occurs. The last thing I need is to get a soffisticated oiling system and then have a pump not able to deal with it. I've already decided with the system not to fabricate a baffle for the oil pan seeing as how everyone on here says that the car is fine without one. I'd hate to have to eliminate any more parts. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
