240D Questions Front Sump????
Hello,
I am new here and was searching for info when I came across it. Nice forum. Are there any members out there who have "rear-sumped" the 240 or 300 diesel engines ? I'm looking for real experienced answers. Ideas are great but nowhere as good as hearing from someone who has been there, done that. I have a 1982 S-10 I want to dieselize with a MB engine. The chassis is rebuilt to hold the weight as I was going to drop-in a SBC. I've owned a MB 240d and a 300SD and liked them both very much. In NJ where I live I have the S-10 tagged as a "historic" vehicle so, no more inspections, ever. Also, the donor car is a 1982 240D, so no government problems as far as registration in more finicky states. I'd really appreciate ANY help you can give with planning this. Thanks, Dan |

Not really possible due to location of the oil pump.

I agree with Eric and will add that the actual oil pump extends down into the sump unlike on a chevy which has the pump mounted up high and just a tube coming down into the sump. I should think relocating it to a different sump position would be very difficult.
