Oil Pump Issues!!!!!!
I brought a new HV Melling (spelling) oil pump from Summit and a Milodeon (Spelling) deep pan for SBC's but hte oil pain pickup seems to be too large to connect into the HVmelling pump... and on the Box of the oil pan pickup it says BigBlock chevy??? what gives? BTW it's a mildeon (speeling) pickup for designed for the SBC tray. Oh yeah and my ARP oil pump shart isw too long for the pump... 
For those using this pan what do you have? or what's wrong here?
OIL PAN PT# MIL-30902
MELLING PUMP # MEL-55HV
OIL PUMP PICKUP# MIL-18301
ARP Shaft# ARP-134-7901
damnit this is the wrong pickup designed for a small block pan... what the damnit! damnit!

Re: Oil Pump Issues!!!!!!
You probably need the 18314 pickup. It is designed for a 5/8" pickup (to match your pump). This is the same depth as your current pickup.
The 18301 is for a BBC style pump installed in a SBC. It has the larger 3/4" diameter which may work with a M155HV pump (but not certain), but not the M55HV (5/8" pickup). The correct pump for your car (most mid 94 & up LT1's) has a 3/4" pickup as does your stock pump.
