Oil Pump Pick-Up for 31005

The Oil Pump Pick-Up for 31005 by Milodon is a purpose-built drag racing component engineered for Mopar Gen III Hemi engines from 2003–2021. This bolt-on pickup assembly is designed specifically for vehicles running a 7-inch deep pan, addressing the critical need for reliable oil delivery under extreme acceleration and cornering loads that stock pickup tubes simply cannot handle. Whether you're building a dedicated drag car or a high-performance street/strip hybrid, this pickup ensures consistent oil supply to the pump during hard launches when standard geometry fails.

Milodon's drag racing-focused design relocates and optimizes the pickup tube path to prevent oil starvation—the silent killer of engine bearings during aggressive acceleration. The 7-inch deep pan specification means the pickup is strategically positioned to maintain submersion even when g-forces push oil toward the rear of the pan, a common failure point in stock configurations. The bolt-on installation means no welding or permanent modification to your pan or block; you can swap pickups between builds or return to stock geometry if needed. At 1.65 lbs, the assembly is lightweight, adding negligible mass while delivering measurable reliability gains in competition and high-performance applications.

This pickup is essential for serious Hemi builders running dedicated drag setups, bracket racing programs, or street cars that see consistent hard driving. Compatibility is limited to Mopar Gen III Hemi powerplants (2003–2021 model years) equipped with a 7-inch deep pan, so verify your pan depth before ordering. Installation pairs with OEM or aftermarket oil pumps and requires the specified pan dimension for proper tube clearance and oil level optimization. For builders prioritizing longevity and reliability during repeated full-throttle runs, this Milodon pickup eliminates one of the most common variables in engine failure.
