Sorry, not sure I am completely understanding what your saying. Car currently has an engine that has the black steel oil pan. Based on price, distance, and mileage of engines on the market, I'm looking at using an engine from an 06 that from my understanding will be with an aluminum oil pan. From what I understand the steel oil pan and the aluminum pan would require different mount brackets.
Just trying to make sure I have the details figured out, and if I need parts to make the above kind of swap that I have parts ordered before getting stuck in the middle of the project.
This reads to me that I do not need a different bracket mount to make the switch, which goes against what I thought I understood.if you have a al pan you can swap it. if you have a the u bracket old style it can be used as well with no issues.
I'm not switching oil pans so no need to switch pick ups, I want to install an engine that comes with an aluminum pan into a car that currently has an engine with the steel pan. To do this I thought I just needed to replace the old mount bracket with a new mount bracket designed for the aluminum pan? I've read so many posts, I may be mixing information up, so I'm just trying to get the details sorted before hand.
