oil pan question

Quick question for the Ford lovers. I'm rebuilding a 351c for a 65 ford truck and was wondering which oil pan to use. I've looked in the JEGS book and can't seem to find a pan (8 quarts plus the filter) to fit in a truck (65 f 100). So if there's someone who's already done this or has knowlegde on this situation. Rather go with one with a front sump or rear. Help me out on this one.

65, There were no 351Cs installed in Ford trucks so like 351W headers, ya aint gonna find any apps.

351 Clevelands use the same oilpan as a 351M or 400. If you want a rearsump oilpan, look for a 4x4. There were millions of them in the late 70's. Kinda rare is the rear sump in a late 70's van. I have only seen 2 vans with 351M/400 in them and I drove those vans for 20 years. Be sure to get the correct oilpump sump tube.
