Make sure you get the rear pickup truck sump not the Corvette one.

whats the difference between the 2 sumps i got an ebay special and it holds the oil fine i did have to mod the fixing points though, make sure you change the "o" ring in the pick up for 20c you can save a lot of hassels.

Truck is deeper and further back. I used the corvette one with a lowered pickup was too close to the diff though.

i ordered mine off eagle and a SBC one arrived. still have it. $50 wasn't worth the hassle of posting it back.
