ok i got off my cousins name... this is my new name for this thread.. i have a kms block girdle do u know of anyone that makes an aftermarket oil pickup? or should i just bend it so it mounts to the girdle... i dunno if bending the mounts is a good idea, the pickup will be deeper in the pan than it should be.. im also thinking about getting a moroso oil pan aswell... i really don't want to buy a bunch of gsr shit that i don't need.. maybe some oil squirters but thats it...

you still need a different pickup with a moroso pan. they make a pan that requires their pickup, which you'll still need the gsr specific one. they also make a pan that uses the stock pickup, you still need a gsr pickup with that one.

the stock ls pickup, pan, and windage tray were not designed to take into account for the girdle. you wont need squirters either.
