Default Re: 81A Oil Pick Up

As noted the screen has a convex surface shape - it normally extends a good 1/4" below the sheet-metal "can" that it is attached too. Also, I've seen many different pump/screen combinations installed in engines that they did not come out of (different years). The last 1932 engine that I found had a good ole' 49-53 pump and screen in it (much better oil pump than the original 32). The only bad news was they removed the original 32 oil tray from the pan so that it would fit . . . Arggggggggggggggggggggggh!
