Oil Pump Pick-Up GM LS Front Sump

The MOROSO Oil Pump Pick-Up GM LS Front Sump (part number 24052) is a direct bolt-on replacement designed specifically for GM LS-series engines running street, strip, or road-race applications. This component addresses a critical lubrication requirement: reliable oil delivery to the pump under high-load conditions, cornering, and aggressive acceleration where pan slosh can starve the pickup tube. The 6-inch deep pan design maintains oil level separation during sustained performance driving, ensuring consistent pump inlet pressure when it matters most.

LS-series engines—whether carbureted, fuel-injected, or turbocharged builds—demand precision oiling systems to support high RPM operation and thermal stress. The factory pickup geometry can prove insufficient once compression ratios climb, boost pressures increase, or the engine sees consistent track duty. This MOROSO pickup reconfigures inlet position and intake tube diameter to maximize oil supply volume while resisting the cavitation and vortex problems common to marginal stock designs. Fitment is confirmed for LS1, LS2, LS3, LS6, LS7, and related variants in both OEM and custom applications.

Buyers installing this pickup typically operate LS swaps in road-racing platforms, bracket-racing vehicles, street performance builds, or engine-out rebuild situations where OEM pickup tubes have proven inadequate. The bolt-on design eliminates machine work and honors stock pan dimensions while delivering the flow characteristics of a purpose-engineered component. Weight (1.53 lbs) and compact footprint (9.3 × 6.05 × 9.3 inches) confirm minimal package impact, making integration straightforward in tight engine bays.

MOROSO's reputation within the LS tuning and small-block engine community rests on intake and lubrication system design. This pickup exemplifies that focus: it solves a real problem (inadequate oil delivery under load) with a verified design that tens of thousands of enthusiasts have validated across drag strips, road courses, and street applications. Specification-matched to the GM LS platform, it integrates without compatibility guesswork.
