The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Oil Pan Issues Using an EAB Engine in a 1940 Pickuo

Fortunately, for me I have a 49 -51 Merc passenger pan (rear sump) laying around from a motor that I tore down several years ago. However, I probably threw out the pickup tube as it was caked with oil/sludge. I will have to check & see if I still have it. If I don't have it are they still available to buy new or do I have to find a used one somewhere? Also, I think it sounds to me like I can use the existing oil pump & I just have to obtain the right pickup tube?
