EMPI Cut-to-Length Oil Pickup Tube for VW Type 1 Engines

This oil pickup tube can be trimmed to suit the sump depth in a Type 1 engine build. It forms the pickup path from the oil supply toward the pump, with the final length chosen around the installed sump rather than a single stock depth. Check the pickup's position and how the tube is secured as part of the engine assembly.
