Oil Pump Pick-up Tube

Need some advice- I am just finishing my build-up, and am replacing my stock oil pump with the MMR "cryo" pump. I have not installed the pick-up tube since I don't have a place to mount it on the main caps. I am using a 4v MVIII Alum block with ARP main studs.

I have not taken my original motor out yet, but know there is a post or hex spacer to fasten the bracket for the pick-up tube on a main cap. Since all the studs in the ARP kit are the same length, the threads at the nut are not exposed enough to fasten anything to it. Any suggestions? I am also using the Canton Windage tray, and must remove the flat shield that is on the tube.

Thanks!

Check with ARP, I have the ARP main studs on my car and I have the hex piece to attach the pick-up to. I cant remember how it was attached, but the hex peice and bolt can be seen in one of the pics on my Gotstang site.
