351W swap troubles
I finally got set to install my 351W into my 68. I got about 1 1/2" from down onto the mounts when.. CLUNK... my oil pan came to rest on the crossmember. This motor must have a deep pan on it. It's 8 1/2" at the lowest point from the block. Am I right? Can I get a shallower pan? I guess my pickup height will be wrong to. Anybody ever change an oil pump? is it difficult? Murray
