I'm installing a 1991 Lincoln 302 w/overdrive trans. in a 1939 Ford p.u. I've installed a Mustang II suspension in the original frame and am now trying to figure out how to lower the engine about 2 to 3 inches, which is being prevented by the stock oil pan that sits at the front, right on top of the suspension crossmember. I pondered a different oil pan but after doing a little research maybe this is not the best solution. The only other idea I can come up with that might make some sense is using a dry sump system. I need to keep the engine in the location that it's in, front to rear, because of leg room in the rear and radiator clearance it the front. Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome. This is my first Ford to Ford conversion and now I'm learning why people use Chevys but I've gone too far at this point to revert to Chevy.
