I'm putting a mopar 360 in a 79 Dodge ramcharger. it has a car oil pan. will the same oil pick up tube work?

i'm switching the oil pan to a truck pan but am unsure if i can use the same pick up tube and screen.I'm putting a mopar 360 in a 79 Dodge ramcharger. it has a car oil pan. will the same oil pick up tube work?
you have to swap out the pan and the pick up sump on those because the one for the car is different and will hit on the steering linkage,the rest is the same though,good luck.I'm putting a mopar 360 in a 79 Dodge ramcharger. it has a car oil pan. will the same oil pick up tube work?
You will need to measure from the pump mount to the bottom of the screen. Then measure your oil pan. you will need the same clearance that you have with the old oil pan.I'm putting a mopar 360 in a 79 Dodge ramcharger. it has a car oil pan. will the same oil pick up tube work?
I think you need to swap to truck pan AND oil pickup screen.
You will have to get the oil pickup tube for the truck pan as the sump is in back, and on car pan sump is in front and has a long pickup tube.
