I have a brand new oil pump from a 2.0 which is not high capacity, and cant decide on which to use.
The 2.0 pump will allow the ford ranger oil pickup pipe to bolt straight up but the 2.3 pump has a slightly different angle for the pickup so the pipe would need modifying.
Can i cut and weld the oil pickup pipe, is there a reason they are brazed instead?
