, that just made me realize that it just won't work with
that feed.

HOWEVER, I do have another feed that it will work on.

Is there any way to search for a row and when found, take the
row after it?

Like this (search for '260454' and retrieve the line after '43 24'):
Code:
260054 CLR                           10          35   7 3213        197
260154 CLR                           10          34   5 3215G20     205
260254 CLR                           10          33   4 3314        212
260354 CLR                           10          31   4 3112        217
260454 CLR                           10          30   4 3212        224
              43  24
