My problem now is that i need a pickup pipe, why not just use a ranger 2.3 pipe i hear you ask? well the 2.3 oil pump is sightly different so i'd have to buy one of those too which is is costly when i'm trying to keep the costs down. (I have a brand new 2.0 pump anyway)
Has anybody done the dura conversion using this sump, how did you overcome this problem?
How much do you reckon an engineering shop woud charge to make one?
