heck, unless you get the right pump, it wont fit under their 8qt pan either.
You need to get the pump that used philips head screws that are countersunk in the cover and then grind down and edge slightly or it WILL hit the pan.
The pump that uses the hex head screws doesnt fit worth a damn and the screw heads will punch a hole in the pan. damhik

A place called precision takes the stock melling pump and blueprints it, and makes some minor mods to it. I have one and think its a nice piece. They are well under 100 bucks if i remember right http://www.precisionoilpumps.com/

That's odd.... I build about 25 SB's a year & anything that has an internal pump uses the M72HV with the newer style 7/16" wrenching hex head bolts.... I've never had one hit the pan ever. Granted I could'nt tell you the last time I used a stock pan was though..... But I just did this 408 with the Milodon "Low Profile" pan & even it cleared....that was second one of those I've used.... we do bunch of Milodon 8 QT pans & Moroso 8 QT pans each year also.
I take the pumps apart & drill the outlet out to 1/2" & do a little hand radiusing inside it for little more volume & I usually modify oil pickup tubes as well.

Ryan, how do you mod the pickup tube? Do you still feed the oil into the 'standard' pump inlet or do you use bottom feed pickups? I'd like to use a 1/2" pickup but due to my center sump I don't think I'll have clearance for a bottom feed pickup - and I thought 'conventional' wisdom was that the M72HV does not have enough meat to bore out the standard pickup inlet point to 1/2".
Thanks!

Gavin, I leave the pump & end of pickup at 3/8" NPT but drill out the end of the pickups to .500" where they are welded to a more solid chunk of threaded round stock to thread into the pump. Takes a whole 30 seconds in the vice with a .500" drill bit do do something Milodon & Moroso should be doing.... aar: it has to be the pans you're using (factory style looks like), I do alot of both 360 & 340 factory blocks a year. It has nothing to do with the block or caps.... I've built every block in existence for the most part, X, R, R1, R1A, R2, R3, 340, 360, TA... never had one hit. All I use is the M72HV.... dunno, maybe you just have really bad luck.

aarcuda are you inverting pictures or something. The reason I ask your picture of the pump shows it's location on the rear drivers side of the engine. Which is correct. Then you show a pick of your pan with marks all around the rear corner passengers side of the engine. You either inverted your picture or was clearancing for something else.
I ran these pumps for years without any clearancing on many different pans. Now when I ran a 4.125 stroke with alluminum rods I had to space the pump off the cap with a .125" spacer. Then I simply put the pan on with no gasket. Taped on the pan to make clearance so the pan would fit. Then simply reinstall with gaskets. No problem.

I have Milodon pans on my 340 and one for my 408, both motors have high volume pumps. I've had to work on both pans and pumps to get enough clearence. I busted a 8 quart moroso pan on my 340, the 7/16 hex heads hit. When I fitted the Moroso I used phillips bolts on the two rear bolts and still had to turn them down. I changed the hex bolts on the pump for my 408 also.
Thank you
Ryan had me thinking i was nuts. I punched out a pan 8 years ago with the bolt heads. I was pissed because I knew they were touching the pan when I put it on but since Ive NEVER heard that there was a clearane issue, I figured I was making too much of it. i even came up with the theory that the bolt heads would dent the oil pan based and MAKE ther own room.
So I bolted it and tightened up the blt. then PANG! the head pushed thru.
I brazed it up and used an oil pump like this on.
I actually did try a regular hv melling (with the bolts) on this motor too that I built this summer. I felt it hit the pan and STOPPED. I knew I had to get another pump with the philips screws.
Amazingly and thankfully, my buddy hemityme had an old chrysler NOS one that he gave me...

Sorry Ryan, bear with me, I must be a bit slow today .....you don't touch the 3/8" hole in the pump, but you mention both leaving the end of pickup at 3/8 and also drilling out the end of the pickup to 1/2, and welding the new stock which threads to the (3/8) pump. Could you run that past me again.........thanks!
