Big block Ford oil pump HV vs standard pickup mount location
Anyone know if the Ford 429 460 pickup screen is different between the high volume and standard volume pump i.e. is the pump flang lower due to the pump being longer on the high volume. Motor is a 1970 429 with a bolt on pump pickup.

update- the only thing I was looking for was the differance if any between the pumps standard and HV I got the answer from pump manufacture both mounting location are the same on the 429 460

With oil pumps, the pickup is related to the pan, HOWEVER....ALWAYS check pan-pickup clearance. You're supposed to be at 3/8-1/2"(according to Canton iirc). The pump changes in HV vs standard volume shouldn't change flange location, but check anyway.
