It may be ugly, but it sure is slow. Girls comb their hair in rear view mirrors and the boys try to look so hard....

I have never found a pickup that would work. 2 0r 3 years ago a member here was building such a pickup but I never saw the finished product. Don't know if they were ever ready to sell or not. I would love to have one!!!!

You can buy the pump cover from any pan manufacture that sell rear sump pans. Common in Circle track racing pans, The stock pump can be enlarged to 1/2 pipe (3/8 pipe is stock). 7634631-008.JPG (42 downloads)

You can buy the pickup from Canton that bolts to the pump as the cover. It's 5/8 and that's what you need. You can modify it from there to fit you pan.
