Mounting Bracket Oil Pump SBC L/S

The Mounting Bracket Oil Pump SBC L/S from Peterson Fluid is a precision-engineered external dry sump oil pump bracket designed for small block Chevy engines requiring driver-side mounting. This component serves as the structural foundation for dry sump oil system installations, which separate engine oil into dedicated supply and return circuits—a critical upgrade for high-performance, racing, and purpose-built engine builds. The driver-side configuration positions the pump for optimal packaging and clearance in street rod, competition, and custom engine bay layouts where space efficiency and weight distribution matter.

Constructed from aluminum and finished in clear anodized coating, this mounting bracket combines lightweight construction with corrosion resistance—essential for longevity in both street and track environments. The clear anodize preserves the natural aluminum appearance while providing an oxide barrier against oxidation and brake fluid exposure. At just 0.52 pounds, the bracket minimizes rotational mass without sacrificing structural rigidity. The compact footprint (2.75 x 0.95 x 6.75 inches) allows discreet installation in engine bays where space constraints are typical, and the kit format ensures all necessary fastening hardware and mounting surfaces are included for straightforward installation without additional sourcing.

Builders and restorers upgrading to dry sump lubrication benefit most from this bracket, particularly in small block Chevy platforms ranging from classic 327s to modern LS variants requiring external pump mounting. Dry sump systems prevent oil starvation during hard cornering, braking, and sustained high RPM operation—making this bracket indispensable for road racing, drag racing, and high-revving street applications. Confirm compatibility with your specific oil pump model and engine block configuration before purchase; this bracket is engineered specifically for SBC small block applications and driver-side orientation.
