Stock bottom end 360 magnum
There is ONE problem. The poor design of the "trumpet" pickups can pick up enough...even soft carbon...to plug the pickup at highway speed. I've posted about this. If possible, use a late model LA pickup

I don't know but tuck this away "for later." I'm convinced a large part of oil pressure problems on late Mopars is due to an incredibly stupid pickup design. had problems in my 95 5.2 Ram 1500, now gone
On the left is an 80's pickup I put back in, the one on the right is the problem child. Notice how clean it looks. It was picking up tiny soft flakes of sludge until it covered the pickup (happened twice) and dropped pressure
