I have Moroso Pan Part # MOR20909 and Pickup # MOR24010

Both for the Vtec GSR engine. When the Moroso pickup is bolted on in place, the pan does quite sit flush on the block face. There is around a 1/4 inch that the pan rocks around. Seems the Pickup is too tall for the pan to sit down on the block...

The pan has the Part# written on it correctly, I can NOT find any Part# anywhere on the pick up.

I know moroso makes 2 different pickups, but in height, they vary little.

5.625" (pickup height for P/N MOR24010)
5.600" (pickup height for P/N MOR24011)

The stock OEM GSR oil pick up will NOT work with my Moroso Pan.

Here is my pan...



Here is the pickup...


Jegs.com says the pickup I have is ONLY for the big aluminum pan they make as seen here.... .


But that makes NO sense because the stock OEM pickup unit will not work with my pan...

Even Moroso's site says I have the right Part #s....

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Could be a manufacturing defect, did you measure it and compare to the listed height?

 

had a similar problem had 2 take out my axle to put on!! moroso is junk!!
order new pick up to find out i had the same pick up all the time!! 50 bucks and 8 days wasted

 

Mine was a manufacturing defect. I fixed it though!

 

OEM pickup woks with my moroso steel pan.

 

ok? who asked in here?

It doesn't with mine.

 

i have the same pickup but it is for the 5.5quart oil pan. they make another model of pickup for their oem style pans.

That pickup wont work with that pan, you need to buy the pickup that looks like the oem pickup.

 

didnt notice you fixed it. What was the problem?

 

The piece of steel that spans across the 2 mounting tabs as shown in the pickup picture above was machined too tall and when the pan was bolted down, a baffle would bottom out on it. So i shaved it down 1/4 inch and all was good.

 

hhmmm good eye thanks for the heads up.

 

Bah, it isn't soo much of a good eye but I just put blue grease on all the highspots on the pick-up then sat the pan back down... then pulled it back off and looked at where the blue grease had stuck to the oil pan. Pretty simple really,

 

I would have done the same also. SOme ppl would just quit though!

 

x2

sorry to hear, I just dropped my pan yesterday with the DP on and all the axles intermediate bar w/o any issues, needed to remove the remains of the Garrett Ball Bearings that exploded and fell into my pan

 

no one asked if the oem pickup works with the 'steel' pan. Nor did I being the OP here.

 

that still doest mean its not helpful for others reading, glad to hear you got it fixed

 

Hello,

I have no pressure in the engine (30 PSI max).

Could it be the Moroso Pan my problem?
I have stock GSR oil pump with Spoon Gearing inside.

 

^^^^ Check you oil level first. If thats fine then you need to take the pan/sump off and dig deeper.

 

i use the moroso pan with OEM pick up with no issues... That pickup is only for the big 5.5 qt pan that is correct....i dont see why oem would not work?

I will say i have had problems with the pan...my spot weld all around the pan started leaking...Where they weld the plate around where the pick up sits.( there is a name for this im just not remebering what they call it) So the you dont starve to oil pump on hard cornering...prob 5 of the 10 spot welds are leaking.

 

I have one to and use OEM pick-up (i didnt even know moroso did one) with no problem what so ever... I was more thinking that his oil level was just low or that there is something not right with the engine...

 

yea you kinda did, your whole debate was on fitment and multiple people saying it fits is a pretty good way to determine that you had a manf defect.

quit being an ***

 

Old thread buddy

 

pssh, this is what i get for just glancing at the date above me

 

Ha,ha,ha... I've done it to...

 

OEM pickup works fine for me with the steel pan
