I thought this was interesting so I thought I'd post an update:
a while back I posted a question about BB oil pickups, its for a 69 383 HP motor - thread link below....
https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...rue#Post7335269The confusion came from both pictures in online catalogs as well as Mopar Performance catalog images vs. what came out of my engine & needed to go back. Everybodys in agreement, dont go by catalog images! What I'd thought was the correct part number I was told was incorrect by a board member but was informed by Mancini Racing differently.
I needed to return some items to Jeg's so to solve the problem I bought both- here's some pic's & data about both....
they
seem to be the same shape & size overall, I haven't measured height yet but the threads,the tube ID, the curve, the oil pickup on the bottom all seem the same. The OD however is larger on the 4529564 by .070, much thicker pipe.
So who knows which is correct for which motors, it'd be good to know & I need to figure out which one to use as well.
My engines a 69 393 HP, windage tray, 402 pan setup.
Thanks ,Evan
