BILLFARO Oil Pump Alignment Tool for Gen V LT Engines — 2-Piece Red Billet Aluminum Guide, Pickup Tube Clamp

BILLFARO's 2-piece billet aluminium oil pump alignment tool holds and guides the pickup tube so your oil pump seats correctly during removal and reinstallation on Gen V LT engines.

When performing cam swaps, timing cover work, or any service that requires temporarily removing the oil pump on Gen V engines (LT1, LT4, LT5, L83, L86, L87), accurate pump alignment is crucial to maintain oil pressure and circulation. This precision-machined, red-anodized billet 6061 aluminium guide kit clamps the pickup tube in place and uses both bolt locations so the pump can be reinstalled straight and reliably.

How does this tool prevent oil pump misalignment?

The BILLFARO alignment kit positions against the existing pump and holds the pickup tube with a secure clamp, using both bolt locations to prevent rotation or tilt. With the tool in place, you can slide the pump into its exact position and tighten bolts without guesswork, reducing the chance of a poor seal or pump damage.

• Clamps pickup tube on both sides for even support
• Fits Gen V LT-series pickup geometry
• Ensures repeatable, tightened alignment during reinstallation

What engines and jobs is this kit compatible with?

This 2-piece guide is engineered for General Motors Gen V LT family engines including LT1, LT4, LT5, L83, L86 and L87. It’s especially useful for cam swaps, front cover removal, or any procedure requiring temporary oil pump removal and reinstallation.

• Designed around Gen V LT pickup tube mounting pattern
• Works with common cam-swap and timing-cover service operations
• Portable and handy for shop or trackside use

What materials and build quality should I expect?

The alignment tool is CNC-machined from 6061-grade billet aluminium and anodized red for corrosion resistance and visibility in the engine bay. The billet construction gives stiffness for accurate locating while remaining lightweight and durable for repeated shop use.

• Billet 6061 aluminium for strength and stability
• Precision-machined faces for consistent alignment
• Red anodize for corrosion protection and easy identification

How do you install and use the BILLFARO pickup tube guide?

Installation is straightforward: place the two-piece tools above the mounted oil pump, loosely thread the tool bolts, slide the pieces flush against the pump, then tighten. After completing your internal work, loosely reinstall the oil pump, push it up to the guides, then torque the pump bolts to spec and remove the guides.

• Mount tool pieces above the installed pump and loosely tighten
• Slide pump up against guides after cam or cover service
• Fully torque pump bolts, then remove alignment tools

Who this is for: mechanics, engine builders, and DIY enthusiasts working on GM Gen V LT platforms who want a simple, reliable way to prevent improper oil pump seating during cam swaps and front-end service. If you value accurate reassembly, quicker turnarounds, and reducing the risk of low oil pressure or pump leaks caused by misaligned pickups, this billet guide kit is a practical shop tool to add to your toolkit.
