I'm considering running one of these for my 6.0L build

The kit comes with spacers to clearance everything but will the pick-up tube still plug into the oil pump if the pump is spaced "X" distance from its original location?

yeah, you may have to slot the bolt holes on the pickup tube a little bit to get the tube centered up in the bore of the pump.

i have a SLP double roller in the ls2 i didnt have to enlongate any holes on the dipstick. slightly tweak the tube some and youre fine.
the slp roller is made by another repuable company, i at moment forget the name but its a good company.

Yeah, rollmaster makes some great products. I'm running a rollmaster single roller timing set. They make a lot of conversion type gear sets, too, for those looking to put a Gen3 engine or camshaft into a Gen4 vehicle.

He was referring to the pickup tube, not the dipstick tube
Get it rite with the oring as well or you have a zero oil pressure start up and trying to get to it with the motor in the truck

Thanks for all the input guys. I think I'm just gonna mach up the pump and see where the pick-up tube lands in the pump's bore. I doubt it will be a big issue, if any.
