Got any pics of your external pickup setup ? I have just modified mine so the pickup pipe comes into the oil pump body rather than the cover and run it with -8 hose to the pickup in the sump. Thinking about fitting an accumulator for a bit of cheap insurance ......
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.
