As to your question about the 17* pump. It's only going to sheer/breakdown your oil faster, than your stock pump.
It will pump more volume. The only real reason to need more volume is you putting in bigger injectors.
If I've understood all I've read on it, up to stage 1's or hybrids, the stock 15* pump is pretty sufficient. Stage 2's and up, you'll need/want... 17* pump or aftermarket dual pump setup.
What are your plans with the truck? Daily driver, towing, or competition.
If your AB's aren't within specs, they can be machined to bring them in line.
