ok, so big issue with the pickup is a MINIMUM... it can be higher....
i guess i was worried there was a sweet spot range to be in.

Started dressing the engine this weekend...
and after about 3-4 hrs....
still haven't decided on valve covers..
need to build oil pump and test for pressure...
figuring out acc. brackets and pulleys might be interesting as well.. have a box of parts and bolts that need to be sorted out.
There was some guesswork on the oil pan and pickup tube..
seemed a bit loose in the threads and I need a much better in. torque wrench for the pan bolts..
I might be pulling and re sealing this week...

Anybody have a part number or size for the coper washer on the oil pump plunger bolt

I think the factory washer was aluminum. There is one in a complete gasket kit. If you can't find one, I have a few used ones. PM me a snail mail address and I'll mail one.

If you need a tool and don't buy it...
you'll eventually pay for it...
and not have it.

Nice build, any updates?
Wow... Stumbled back to grab something from our hosts and ran across my 360 build.
About to re visit a 2 year old thread.
I owe this board an update.
Will post pictures this weekend and give a short wright up...
