I'm trying to plumb my Milodon pan and external oil lines and I can not put a "upper loop" in it. With this pan (rear sump w/ steering link pass through hole) and Hooker Super Comp headers in a stock frame E body, with a mostly stock K member, the only way to run the #12 line from pan to rear of pump is down, under hole in pan to a 45* inlet into pump. If I try to go up I run into the headers. The filter is a remote unit, mounted above the pump, with lines running down to the pump.
Am I going to have a problem with this holding its prime?
Thanks, Brian
