Does anyone sell a longer pickup for a low deck stroker with a main stud girdle?

do you need the length to get past the girdle or to reach deeper in the pan at the pickup?You could have a sleeve put on the pickup to lower it but I am sure you would just like to buy what works to beging with if you can.

Which oil pan are you using? If a later 6 quart street(1970-71) model then you will have to lengthen a stock one,440 3/8 or 1/2 inch Hemi or try a earleir pick up out of a 1966 to 1969 Hemi or lenghthen a 383/440 out of a earlier pan also Some of the early C body stock pick ups are longer also

short answer, not that I know of.
Question? which stud girdle?
On my 500" stroker wuth the BCR main cap/girdle kit, I used the Milodon low profile oil pan #30930, and used the pickup for the deep pan #18330. I had to heat and reshape the pickup a bit for it to fit correctly.

The only thing I've bought so far is the 440Source main stud girdle.
I don't really want a pan with kickouts, and I really don't want a pan with a 7" deep sump unless I have to for this type of motor(500" low deck, 10.5 to 1 compression street motor). I wonder if the 5.5 quart pan would work?

And yes I do just want the pickup to be able to reach the bottom of the pan.
440Source told me it depends on the pickup, some need to be sleeved and some just need to be heated up and bent.

OP, you might want to consider using one of the repop 1970-71 Street Hemi/440 six pak 6 quart oil pans (if it will work in your chassis )with the girdle and try a stock replacement 3/8 pick up off of a early 1965 to 1970 C body B-RB motor If your wanting to use a 1/2 inch pickup try one of the 1966 to 1969 Street Hemi motor stock pick ups

the 440 source girdle is only 1/4 thick if memory serves. i would just heat and rebend if you can. on the bcr girdle we make ours is 1/2 thick and you need to cut and sleeve in just about every application.
