    hi guys, I am thinking about pulling the oil pan off, cut it and weld it back together as a rear sump pan. I know it has been done, but what has been done to move the oil pickup to rear? any pics, advice, suggestions or problems to watch for would be great!!! the engine looks fine where it is setting, just above front crossmember, but the trans will run quite a bit higher and will require a bigger tunnel. I am also going to recess the firewall so the engine will set in the bay, thanks
