Headers for RB in A body

Brian6pac, if I could make a suggestion from experience please? You're gonna want to get a longer external oil hose. And use 45 degree fitting off the pump. Loop it upwards then back down to your pan 90 turned almost straight in the air. If you using a motor plate it looks like it will fit easy. What happens is your pump will lose its prime overnight with it pointing downwards. Which leads to either dry start or cranking the hell out of to get oil pressure before you start it. (Hard on starters) Just a suggestion. Sorry to hijack

Dana, that wasn't the final line but the one I made is with a couple 90's but I will say that it picks up oil just fine, the first time it sucked up the oil in seconds with no problem, it belongs to a friend of mine and the way its going in is a slightly modified k-member 67 barracuda with motor mounts, and he knows to keep a eye on the line. It also sat for 6 weeks when he came to pick it up we fired it up and had 70 psi instantly.
