Product Description

The Moroso 24178 is an application-specific oil pump pickup tube engineered for Chevy S10 and GMC S15 trucks and Blazers/Jimmys undergoing a Gen III or Gen IV LS engine swap using Moroso's dedicated S10/Blazer LS swap rear sump steel oil pan (Part No. 20178). This 7-inch-deep, 6.5-quart pan is purpose-built for the tight confines of the S-series chassis, and the 24178 pickup is dimensionally matched to its rear sump geometry - ensuring the pickup screen sits at the correct clearance from the pan floor and aligns properly with the LS oil pump inlet. The tube is precision-bent from steel, heliarc welded, finished in black oxide, and features a welded wire mesh screen on the pickup box to continuously filter the oil supply without impeding flow.

In any LS swap build, the oil pickup tube is a critical link in the lubrication chain. A mismatched or incorrectly positioned pickup can result in air ingestion, oil starvation, or pressure loss at high RPM - all of which lead to accelerated bearing wear or engine failure. By pairing the 24178 pickup exclusively with Moroso Pan No. 20178, builders eliminate guesswork and ensure the pickup maintains Moroso's specified 3/16 in.-1/2 in. clearance from the sump floor. This consistency is especially important in the S10/Blazer platform, where tight chassis packaging demands precise component coordination between the engine block, oil pan, and pickup geometry.

This pickup is designed specifically for 2WD Chevy S10 and GMC S15 platforms with a GM Gen III or Gen IV LS engine swap (covering 4.8L, 5.3L, 5.7L, 6.0L, and 6.2L displacements) using Moroso Pan No. 20178. It is not compatible with other Moroso LS swap oil pan part numbers. Builders should confirm oil pump compatibility before installation. For a complete oiling system solution, pair this pickup with the Moroso 20178 oil pan, a compatible GM LS oil pump, and the appropriate oil pan gasket.
