Hi guys. Just getting back to this project after having shoulder surgery last month. I did get the motor buttoned up and was going to paint it today, but I still have a question about the oil pump/pan. When the 428 was in the GTO, I had a Canton pan on it (with the correct pickup). That pan has a little side kick out and I don’t know if it will even fit in the TA. I tried just laying a stock pan on the engine, but the pump pick-up sits too low. Would you just buy a new stock pick-up and swap out the Canton one, or should I get a new oil pump as well?
