What sort of $ would I expect to pay for a 308 sump and oil pickup
-
I swore I wouldn't put a v8 in it hehe

I was thinking of using the 304 end and get drive shaft made Cross member from CRS is just under 200 but there is a article about CRS going in to liquidation Reason I asked about floor pan mods I looked at one ( awhile ago ) and they had extensively modified the floor pan stiffening panel to get clearance Re the exhaust headers etc would be well over 1k I assume the hq wb v8 mounts are the same
-
Any one here put a 304 in to a wb I believe I need a early hq style sump and oil pick up Can I use the factory manifolds and front pipes Will I need to cut the floor pan to get the auto to fit Is there much rear cross member modification needed

I have a heavy duty rotisserie if any one wants to long term borrow it you would need a Ute or trailer to pick it up its made from about 100mm galv pipe and has castors so you can move the car around the workshop
