I'd run a 49-53 pump and use the pickup that Speedway sells - then make modifications. It is one of those "mods" that you need to make - to modify the baffle so the screen and tube fit. You want the bottom of the screen about 1/4" to 3/8" off the bottom. On my first flathead, I had to cut/weld up the tube between the screen and the pump to get it where it needed to be.
