Dad Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Oil pick up screens are obsolete, New oil pumps are really pricey, has anyone used the 83 style oil pump and pick up tube that bolts to block, They are really inexpensive and available. I'm sure some have tried it. Thoughts? input? Results? Dad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldStar Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 I've been told the Melling NA oil pumps work good, planning to run one when I can finally get around to my rebuild. Still available on Rock Auto, just have to check under the Ram 50/Mighty Max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad Posted February 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Good to know, James Kane has one also, waiting to see how his pressure is, When I had the shop I compared the pumps and really looked the same, I like the idea of a cast pump and steel gears over aluminum housings, seems aluminum gets scored easily, Plus the Cast pumps cost so much less.
