$48.99
(You save)
Feed your oil pump a steady, screened supply with the Melling Performance Engine Oil Pump Pickup Tube and Screen 12564. On the suction side of the lubrication system, this pickup draws oil from the pan sump and strains out debris and contaminants — from normal engine wear, extended oil-change intervals, and other internal sources — before that oil ever reaches the pump. It's a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of GM V8 applications, including the 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500 and K1500 [V8-5.7L], 1957-1975 Chevrolet Bel Air, and 1990-1992 Cadillac Brougham [V8-5.7L]. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 492 applications.
Galvanized steel screen: guards the pump from materials that find their way into the oil supply.
Straight tube: 8.500 in (216 mm) long with a 0.750 in (19 mm) inside diameter and a flanged end using 2 mounting holes.
Adjustable pickup: screen height adjusts up to 0.250 in (6.35 mm) for proper sump clearance.
Gasket included; protective coating applied. Built to OE-level tolerances. Mounting hardware is not included — consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners.
Melling recommends fitting a fresh high-performance pickup tube/screen as part of every oil pump installation. Made in the United States.
