Good luck with the troubleshooting.

Had used gasket and Halomar when assembling pick-up tube to engine, still no flow. Can't see why it will not prime. Pulled oil line off and pumped oil into hole to prime the pump since it had set for a long time since engine assembly; it spit out the oil put in there showing that the pump would work but still didn't suck, rather it does 'suck'. Should I have used Ultragray instead of the Halomar? Any suggestions? Will put a 3/8" extender on pick-up tube after oil flow is confirmed with stock set-up (using sandwich mount 1/2" thick like CC mount).
