The pickup should be around 1/4" from the bottom
of the pan.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] oil pan
hey Guys, I need some more advise :o)
I had gotten a 7 quart oil pan when I had my 454 redone, but it
wont fit into my 72 chevelle. so I picked up a Miloden pan from Jeg's and
today I tried to put a "Miloden" stock replacement and a stock BBC pick-up .
through my inexperience I tried the pan and it didnt fit flush up to
the bottom of the block .I think it was resting against the oil
pick-up. I was able to make all the pan bolts starting in the middle
and working my way out to the edges , everything seems snug? question is how
far should the oil pick-up bee from the bottom of the pan ? (it probaly
shouldnt be against it like I suspect). I would love to hear what you
guys think ! do I have the wrong pick-up, sump or pan . thanks again !
