Re: [MBZ] Custom upper oil pan
Yep, it's for the truck swap. Oh, anyone happen to know if the oil pump from the turbo engine will fit in an NA engine? If it does it might help alleviate a clearance issue I'll likely run into. I may have asked before, but I can't remember getting any response if I did. Walt On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 10:50 AM, R A Bennell wrote: > Yes, I assume so too.

Re: [MBZ] Custom upper oil pan
Yes, I assume so too. I had a quick look at the photo link in one of the other postings and note the reference to "V6 truck". I had a 68 Chevy C10 for a long time and often wondered if a 5 cyl MB diesel would have had sufficient power to make it usable. It came factory with the 292 inline 6 and a powerglide so was a bit of a pig on fuel. Sold it a couple of years ago so no longer a consideration really.
