stopped by Mckinney Motorsports today and found out definately that I do have the same situation as the RB26 swappers. The second set of holes I mentioned where the pickup tube can mount "IS" the original place for the pickup tube, to bad its closed because that is where that bad boy needs to be. Mack said he would like to find an RB block to try and drill that out...anyone have a spare block laying around???? I'll buy it.
Anyway, looks like I'll have to section mine out and make it longer to reach the sump.
Thanks for the help,
Rob
