maybe stupid question, but: do the common 512cui kits with Chevy rod journals require an external oil pickup? Greets Flo

I know that article. There was also a dyno shootout on a 383 I think in Car Craft or so. That is why I thought the Torker might be a good compromise. Greets flo

Greets Flo No, you will have to grind a small amount off of the internal oil pickup boss to clear the #1 rod with or without the external or internal oil pickup I like to use the 1970/71 6 quart stock street hemi and 440 six pak oil pan with the stock 440 6 pak 3/8 pickup on the cars like ours, 1966 B bodys I ran that set up on my old pump gas Duster and never had a problem with oiling that motor on the street or at the track except letting it get a quart low once at the track and having the oil pressure drop after letting off at the 1/4 mile tracks, that was at 127+ MPH and above I used a stock Mopar windage tray with a home made crankshaft scaper also

I plan on using the Milodon #31580 Road Race pan. If possible with internal 1/2" pickup maybe stupid question, but: do the common 512cui kits with Chevy rod journals require an external oil pickup? Greets Flo No, you will have to grind a small amount off of the internal oil pickup boss to clear the #1 rod with or without the external or internal oil pickup I like to use the 1970/71 6 quart stock street hemi and 440 six pak oil pan with the stock 440 6 pak 3/8 pickup on the cars like ours, 1966 B bodys I ran that set up on my old pump gas Duster and never had a problem with oiling that motor on the street or at the track except letting it get a quart low once at the track and having the oil pressure drop after letting off at the 1/4 mile tracks, that was at 127+ MPH and above I used a stock Mopar windage tray with a home made crankshaft scaper also

I have had blocks modified for the 1/2 inch pickups , no more after having one crack the boss when installing the bigger 1/2 inch pickups I'm sure the correct Mildon 1/2 inch pickup for that oil pan will work, make sure and check the clearance between the bottom of the pickup and the bottom of the oil pan I don't know what Milidon recommends for the minumums, I would like to see less than 1/4 inch between them for my own use
