Hello, I know I heard somewhere that the oil pans and pickup tubes are different in the car and truck engines. I have a '77 D100 and have 2 engines that were in cars. Would I have any issues dropping in either engines in my truck with the car oil pans? Is it necessary to have a truck oil pan on the engine? I hope not because I'd really like to just get the oil pan I removed sand blasted, painted and installed on the engine and just drop it in the truck. Thanks for any and all info!

Truck pans have the dipstick tube through the side.

Truck pans have the sump in a different place than a car. Car pan will not work

Ok so all I would need is an oil pan from a truck and a pickup tube for the oil pump? Is that it or am I missing something?

Correct. I just did the same swap this week, Car into truck. Car pan would hit the cross member in a 2WD truck

These two guys have forgotten more than I will ever know but my 4 W.D truck has all sorts of room between pan and crossmember.

Not sayin it would work, just sayin
