That's interesting. I've seen two Hemi pickups fail in my short and uneventful life and in both cases the owners told me they didn't check to make sure the pickup contacted the pan. The other item I've noticed is that the stock pickups have rolled threads and the aftermarket ones I've seen have cut threads. IMHO the stress riser at the end of the cut thread is a problem just waiting to happen although I'll admit I haven't seen it cause a problem in practice.
