Raff, that's what I thought.

No, I don't have any extra fittings to try out.

At this point I'm leaning towards one of the types that I linked previously.

I run an old school internal 1/2 NPT oil pickup. Those fancy, expensive, external systems seem nice, but don't exactly bolt into many applications.

I will admit is is starting to wear on me. I'm not really sure what my breaking point is but I'm not quite there yet.

I hope

Bill, I think I would go with a plate. Wasn't sure if I wanted to do one on my car or not. Now I don't think I would want it any other way. You can cut off the stock mounts for clearance and are not so limited how you have to run the lines. It is also much easier to install the motor by yourself. Just my opinion, but I really don't see a reason not to. Either way, good luck this year. Hope you can finally get to have some fun!

Well, it looks like my decision on what to do just got a lot easier.

I gotta call this evening from Gorski telling me he had a motor plate I could use if I needed it.

I owe you big time Rick

And fair warning.............

Expect more dumb questions that have probably been asked 1000 times once I get the plate and start working on getting it in

Bill, dont fret little buddy.... I have the milodon dual line kit in my car with 100% stock front suspension.

I do run a motor plate, but I use the stock passenger side motor mount as a limiter...

That oughta work just fine. I ran 1 limiter on my car with 1/4" plates front and rear until I put in the 572. Then I added one on the other side just to be sure the motor/trans weren't twisting.

I had the 1 limiter deal on the car for around 15 years with no drivetrain problems. Well, come to think of it, I did crack 1 Powerglide bellhousing after maybe 1500 passes. With the new motor and 2 limiters I broke 3 bellhousings this year.

If you do what Josh recommends I bet you'll be in hog heaven.

Here I thought one of the big advantages of the plate was getting rid of the stock motor mounts and gaining more room.

Dude, this is racing. If it was easy, well you probably know the rest!

If you really want more room just stub off everything at the firewall and weld in some pipe.

Seriously though, Josh's just tryin' to make your life easier. At least you'll have room for the pump and lines.
