Milodon Oval Track Press / Bolt-On Oil Pump Pickup - 7 in Deep Pan - Small Block Chevy

All Milodon pick-ups feature exclusive design foot on the pick-up bottom. This assures that in all cases, the engine can never be starved of oil due to insufficient pick-up to pan floor clearance. This can be caused from running over an object, which dents the pan or pan floor flex that is seen only in operation and may otherwise go unnoticed (to all except your bearings). Care must, however, be used so as not to load the pick-up by having it push into the pan floor upon installation. This will most likely result in eventual breakage of the pick-up or cracking of the pan. Each pick-up is engineered to work perfectly in the pan and application it is listed for your assurance of a trouble-free installation.

For 50 years since its founding in 1957, the name Milodon has been synonymous with premium quality racing components. Milodon started with Milo Franklin and Don Alderson, hence the name of MILO-DON. Don was a racer, both at the drag races and the salt flats, and an aerospace engineer. The Dead End Kids, who were the # 1 Top Fuel team in the Northeast in 1965, moved to California and became an instrumental part of Milodon for many years to come. It was this engineering team that developed the major products that Milodon sells today. Main caps, Gear Drives, Oil Pans and Fasteners were designed in an environment where failure was absolutely unacceptable. Milodon's roots extend into virtually all forms of automotive and marine competition. Milodon has taken its advanced technology to the Sportsman ranks and the street, manufacturing a wide range of race quality products to enhance performance and reliability in all applications. It's important to note that the majority of all products in the line are made right at Milodon's Simi Valley, California facility. Included in these in-house capabilities are such operations as CNC machining, thread rolling, gear tooth cutting, metal forming and welding. Milodon's objective has been to incorporate state-of-the-art manufacturing technology, aerospace caliber materials and stringent quality controls to produce true American-made, race quality performance products of exceptional value. We all know that..... you can buy many brands cheaper than Milodon, but you can't any better.
