I'm curious, what exactly is wrong with the stock pickup?
What modifications would make it better?

It's just a small pipe with a screen over it. It is spaced too far from the bottom of the pan. It needs to be wider and closer to the bottom of the pan like the 1j and 2j pickup is.

Just to let you guys know I haven't forgot about the pan. I still waiting to hear back from slow66 on the progress if he got the short block there or not.

Stock pickup is fine if you bend the pipe down closer to the pan floor. (Almost touching is fine due to the screen that hangs down below the pickup tube...)

I'd like to have a custom pickup, but that is going to cost you some money, and it's going to slow down the development of this pan. (Trap doors, scrapers and baffels will need to accomodate either the stock pickup, or your idea of a better design, but either way, it's going to cause some headaches, and I'd think the better pan design will over come some lacking design work on the stock pickup...)

Sorry guys...havent had a chance to bring a pan down there. Been super busy at work and tryin to get my car together for vegas....havent had much spare time. This is something I WILL be doing however, as i need the pan just as much as you guys do, it just may be an "over the winter" thing for me. Sorry i cant get it done sooner, gotta stick with my priorities....You will all be the first to know when i get in touch with Canton.

I know this question is unlikely to be answered on this forum but does anyone happen to know if the group A oil pan would fit the 7mgte on a mkii? If it fits then I'd be in to fill the desired "10" in order to get this cheaper than $450...

no it will not fit front sump vs mid sump you have to cut you sub frame or raise you motor though the hood of your car
