The alloy AU oil pan has provision for cross-bolted main caps, so the earlier oil pan will not fit the AU block.

The AU has cross bolted mains that go thru the sides of the alloy pan. Try and get an EL engine, will bolt straight into your ute, and just use your own manifolds, harness, ECU, etc. Back to top gryph Fordmods - Getting Side Ways Age:29 Posts: 711 Joined: 11 Nov 2005 Location: Geelong VIC, Australia View User Gallery (1) Posted: Tue Apr 22, 2008 1:11 pm    Post subject: Do what i did and cut and weld the front of the sump on a 45deg angle and it clears the kframe no probs.

I am doing an engine swap from '90 model EA CPI/4 speed auto to all ED MPFI/4 speed auto. I have the entire ED for parts, so I was going to swap EVERYTHING, looms, ecu, entire dash, steering column, engine and trans. Now what i'm not sure about is do I need to replace the fuel pump in the EA? The EA is a CPI wagon, and the ED is an MPFI sedan. Will the sedan pump fit in the wagon? Please let me know, I would like to put this all together this (long) weekend. Cheers.

Using an EF compressor on AU block. the top spacer will be ok it doesnt need to be cut. from memory the bottom 2 need 4mm removed from them..

Using an au belt, ef power steering pump and ef compressor, the rest is au gear, will the belt fit within the tension range, and is there a mark on the tensioner to tell when a belts stuffed? It looks like it needs 10mm taken off, instead of 4? thanks Back to top TROYMAN Technical Contributor Age:34 Posts: 2886 Joined: 07 Nov 2004 Location: South Western Sydney NSW, Australia View User Gallery (26) Posted: Tue Jul 22, 2008 8:56 am    Post subject: the top one didnt need to be cut as the bottom mounting holes are offset compared to ef. the top one is in the right spot. but when you go to fit the bottom ones the std spacers are 4mm to long. im using all ef acessories and belt. originally i used the std spacers on the bottom and spaced out the top one 4mm, but i had a extremly hard time getting the ef belt on. and when i finally got the belt on the tensioner was maxed out. once i swapped the spacers around the tensioner is spot on..

Looking to fit an AUXR6 bottom end into my EB, with my ED head (recently reco'd) using standard manifolds and ecu. I never use AC so would like to avoid the hassle if possible. Will I need any other parts to get the serpentine setup to work?
