Oil Pump Pick-Up Kit

The CANTON Oil Pump Pick-Up Kit (MPN 20-720) is a weld-on external oil pickup assembly designed for engine builders, hot rodders, and performance mechanics who demand reliable oil delivery under extreme conditions. This screened pickup cup is engineered to solve common oiling issues in modified engines where stock systems fall short—whether you're running a custom dry-sump setup, a high-RPM small block, or a radical street engine. The kit includes everything needed for proper oil sump evacuation, making it an essential component for serious performance builds.

Built from durable steel construction, this pickup features a screened cup design that filters debris while maximizing flow to the pump inlet. The 12 AN fitting allows seamless integration into custom oil lines and aftermarket pump configurations, providing flexibility in plumbing layouts. The weld-on design ensures permanent, leak-free installation once properly secured to your oil pan or sump—critical for safety and consistency in high-performance applications. The compact dimensions and lightweight construction (0.66 lbs) make it easy to position in tight engine compartments without compromising clearance or heat management.

This universal kit suits engine swaps, vintage restorations, custom fabrication projects, and competition engines where OEM pickups are incompatible or undersized. Mechanics and builders working with LS, small-block Chevy, big-block Ford, and other popular platforms rely on external pickups like this when upgrading to dry-sump systems or transitioning to race-spec oil delivery. Proper installation requires welding expertise and careful sump positioning to ensure the pickup cup sits fully submerged during acceleration, braking, and cornering. Pair with quality braided lines and a compatible pump for maximum reliability.
