Bought the larger 1981 R65 oil pan on eBay with the idea to install it on a 1980 R65 that has the smaller capacity pan.
Does anyone know if there would be any issue with doing this swap ? I expect I would need a different dip stick for an accurate reading. My main concern is that somehow the 1980 engine / oil pump would have some type of difficulty reaching the oil in the deeper pan.
If anyone has done this before, or has words of warning I'd love to hear from you.
thanks,
