Both... the oil pan is a little cut and weld... I
am right at 600hp (SB) and I use the static pick up




is there a rule of thumb for static pick ups and how much hp they can support? when I built the engine I did not drill it for 1/2", so it is stock. what oil system would support 600 hp and at what point should a swinging pick up be used along with higher pressure and volume oil pump?



Sounds like your talking BB but I know plenty of guys
that make 600+ hp on the stock pick up... a 3/8"
hole can supply a lot of oil under pressure
