I didn't want to take away from Cabs post, but had a couple questions.I have a Milidon oil pump, but may not be able to use the port/fitting at the pump. It is a dual line system, with various parts. I'll show a couple pics, but my question is, does it matter which combo of fittings you use? Can I use the one off the pump, and one off the filter adaptor? Could I use the one on the Indy block next to the oil pump(pic#2), and the one off the filter adaptor? How about both fittings off the filter adaptor? Thanks as always,Dave.

The basic concept with a dual inlet system is to feed both sides of the oil pump. So as long as you're using one inlet on each side of the pump you should be fine. Take the pump apart and study it and you'll see what I mean by feeding each side of it.

im only using a single line, the one at the rear of the pump, i use a stock regular pump also, no HV, and my motor is apart right now, bearings looks amazingly well....the pic looks right though

Ok, thanks for the input.The port on the block itself is a good workable place to have a inlet though, correct?

Thanks Tony. I had a single line, and the bearings looked great also. Thought I needed the dual line? Thanks.

I've been running the single line setup for years..problem i have is it takes a bit to get up oil pressure. I've tried routing the line differently too.

I'm not trying to hijack here, but what kinda oil pump front cover is that? Who makes it? I'm looking to buy one just like it. Thanks!!!

Check out Cabs post " Dual line Milidon oiling system". It's a billet part that isn't made anymore(so I hear), but there are options to this one. Good luck.

maybe if there was a big enough demand they would make a run of them, that cover looks nice

every external feed milodon pump i've ever seen would block that feed

I will also suggest a non by-pass oil filter.Throw that fram ship in the gu-bage! I use the moroso filters on my duel filter set up

The fram filter is there for mockup only. I have been using WIX racing filters. I agree with you

I'll look at the pump as suggested. I agree the Milidon pump will be in the way if using the fitting on the block. I am having fitment issues with the radiator hose, and headers I built, so I'm trying to come up with more options, and thus the reason for the post. I would use one or the other. But first I'll inspect the pump.Thanks.
