A couple comments on the oil pickup.
Purge the tube with a constant argon flow to avoid the ( sugar) inside. And, it must be clean. DO NOT USE BRAKE CLEANER TO DEGREASE! Argon plus BRAKE cleaner plus heat equals deadly gas that will kill you.
You may want to reconsider using that main bearing bolt you welded on? I wouldn't use it. I'd find a different way to support the tube.
That bolt has a specific tensile strength, temper, elasticity and yield point, all of that was changed by the heat. Not a chance in hell I'd use it!
That's just my opinion. I like what you're putting together though, nice car.
