Oil Pan?

Hi--

I have a 1985 F-150 2wd, and I am hotrodding a 79 inline 6 for it. The motor I have in the 85 has a rear sump oil pan, but the 79 rebuild motor has a center sump design.

Will it fit with my crossmember? What could it have come out of, a van or something? Must I try and convert to rear sump pan of my 85? Is the oil pick up just routed differently, or are their fundamental design differences?

Thanks,'
Scott
