Your going to have to tell more of what your setup is going to be. If you're using a stock pan then yes that's the pickup to use but if you're using a deeper pan then you're going to have to put a 3/4 national pipe thread end on a longer pick up.
Have never heard of anybody running the oil sump dry with these modifications. If somebody did we would have heard about it over and over and over.
And yes I highly recommend using a windage tray and baffles in your pan.
Did all of my babbling above help where do I need to clarify?
Yes,
gotcha.
I just finished drilling out the main cap intersection where it turns coming from the pump.
I will plug the #1 main journal supply that I drilled to 5/16 then open up the other side leading up to oil galley.
Sure wish I could leave it as is and not have to install the crossover tube.
I do not plan to restrict flow to the cam bearings.
This engine is a 74’.
It will be boosted with procharger AND later a turbo. Yes, Both.
E85, Blowthrough, blah blah.
Rpms will be held to within the 62-6500 range max.
All these oiling mods are just for a little added insurance and for the fun of modifying.
The crossover tube is too involved to be a fun project. hahahah
The previous engine was a totally stock oiling system except high pressure spring mopar pump.
Went 76k miles and the last 26k with Procharger.
Only sign of wear was front 2 main bearings were showing copper.
I thought it may have been from pulling on the snout with blower belt but then realized it was on the wrong side of shell to be that.
