My take on the oiling system crossover tube for the small block

Do you have any of the Mopar small-block engine books? Such as how to build big inch small blocks or how to modify the small block Mopar or any of those old books?
Anyway in the guitar Jones thread it tells about driving the passenger side front plug into the oil Galley to block the line going down to the number one main.
By the way you do not need to be tapping any of those lines down there by the mains. By pushing that front plug-in on passenger side Galley you eliminate the need to tap and plug that line feeding the main there. I think somebody even mention that they put a second plug in front of the one that they pushed back. And somebody may have actually mentioned tapping that and threading a plug in it but I don't go that far on it.

Maybe this pickup will work for you extending the pan.

If you have problems tapping out the oil pump I believe what I did was I went 1/64 bigger on the drill bit.
And I got my tap set from Harbor Freight.
