I need a 402 oil pan oil pick up tube with 3/8" thread. I bought a repo off ebay but the threads were not 3/8". Any help appreciated. Thanks.
Guess I will have to dig it out.. the "jog" in the pick up tube is to clear the windage tray and allow the tube to get under it while allowing the tray to cover as much crank as possible. Without the tray there... a straight run to the pick up works just fine. I have never had any mopar, or engine that didn't use a 402 pan (other than my SB Dart) and I have the straight tube in my spares from when I was 17. That said... that was 42 years ago and I'm willing to admit if I'm wrong.. BUT I'm gonna dig it out.. LOLI don’t have a block handy to try it on. I have the pickup flat on the bottom of the pan and conimg through the slot in the tray, then tray removed to show the fit.. I may have the pickup tube at the wrong angle.
But how can a straight pickup not hit the baffles? It’s a straight shot from the block past the windage tray, the curves are just above the baffles?
like above I’d like someone the show me a straight tube the fits in this pan.
I’m not saying is can’t happen, I’d like to see it.
Looks like R413 has one...They do not have one.. I talked to them today.
melllingOkay, just thought best you clarified as one is straight and windage is S shaped. I could have helped with a straight one! Good luck!
