Front sump L28 into a zed

Featured Replies

Currently have a high compression L28 n42 with E88 head in a Datsun 240k that i'd like to transplant into my 240Z while its L28 f54 is out for a rebuild.

Is this a fairly simple swap?

I've got a spare zed sump & pickup, the sump will fit up easy its the pickup that I'm unsure of, as some searching I've done mentions 2 pickup points or extending the pickup tube?

It's interesting to note that even on this front sump motor the dipstick is in the same rear spot as my zed motor.

Just after some advise on attacking this or just fit one of my low comp motors out my other zed junk cars.
