Today while getting the engine ready to install I found that along with the fuel pump, the dizzy was smashed, and the 5 bolt oil pump was broken.THIS is a 86 truck engine that was in my wifes 63 Valiant. I took the 64 6 bolt oil pump and mounted it on the 86 truck engine.Will this work fine? I ordered a 5 bolt pump, but it may not get here in time for my road trip......just hoping that someone here may know for sure.

Yes Andy you can, just watch the gasket they sometimes are not cut correctly. You could cut out a new gasket from some sheet gasket material if the one in the set won't match the pump.
