Been contemplating whether to reuse my pickup tube, or buy a new one.

The dent on the screen was from laying it on the floor with the pickup tube still on...

I'll provide pics.

I forgot to include that this strainer seen 2 motor failures. First motor: rod bolt failure/rod bearing failure. Second motor: was with a rebuilt crankshaft that spun/destroyed 1 main bearings, spun/destroyed 1 piston/rod bearing, and cracked the crankshaft in half.

Not that it matters or not.. =/
 
I whould buy a new one man dont risk anything especially on the inside of your motor plus a new shoudnt be that much.
 
If it was going on a bone stock high milage engine, I'd run it. But on my build, I'd buy a new fancy pants one. ;)
 
Just get a new one. Since its already out, whats the point of re-installing the old one that your not sure about instead of getting a new one that your sure will work?
