69 b-body with dual oiling system?

[431Bird]

Hey all. Just wonder if anybody is running dual oiling kit from milidon. I have 2 into 2 1/8 inch step headers. Just curious how you guys ran your oil lines. I have hardly any room to tuck it near the block it looks like. Also I don't have any pics of my oil pump cover currently, but one fitting comes out the back of it, which is the one I'm having issues with, and of coarse the one out the front.
Thanks

Does your car use factory motor mounts?

Alright guys this is what i have hopefully the pic will load. I'm gonna have to get line and shorten them up some. Also when I make the line, I want to have a line looped up above the pump so it don't lose prime.. did i read that right?

I would start by mounting your engine and plate in the car. Then you can check clearance at the steering box, the lower radiator hose, oil filter and plate. Those lines can leave the pan almost vertically and be against the block for clearance. The line at the back of the pump will try to fight with the steering box mount. If the front line is hard line it may go over the top and through the plate. Can we have a picture from the front? Dave

Check the location on the lower radiator hose. If you can, try to run this over the pump maybe. You can get a 90 or 120 fitting to go over the pump and back along the block and down to the pan. Thanks for the pic. Dave

ok will do another thing to look at..im concerned about the headers, the back of the motor and getting them to go and not getting burnt by the headers...in the pic above is that the right right way the lines are suppose to be?
thanks

With a motor plate, you'll have no problem but if you want to retain motor mounts milodon offers a oil pump housing specifically for that.
