I like the idea of using a pickup like what was discussed in the oiling mods thread a while back and want to find out who to send my timing cover to. Should I get an aftermarket oil pan or install the new pickup in the side of my current pan (which has had an inch added to the sump)? Thanks...Fish
Oil Pump Pickup Check with Mike @ Automotive Machine & Performance (AM&P). #270-729-5556. They can set you up with the Scavenger System. It basicly mounts to your timing cover in place of the oil pump cover. It re-directs the oil directly from your oil pan to the pump. If it worked well before, you can use your existing pan. All you need to do is put a hole in the side of it for your new pickup. I highly recomend having baffles in the pan though. Call Mike at AM&P or Finishline Motorsports. Either one can help you out.

Pickup! I used this system for my new engine. Also used a SRE pan with several baffles. Looking forward to gettting on the dyno soon. jim N.
