M54A1 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I'm in the process of switching a 237 in to my B model. I have ran in to a few issues. I was planning on using the oil pan from the 673 and putting it on the maxidyne in order to keep the starter on the passengers side, but the 673 has a different oil pump/pickup than the maxidyne. Do the oil pumps need to be switched or can I use the maxidyne oil pump/pickup (which is about 2" deeper than the 673 pickup) with the 673 pan?. Any other issues I need to know about?

B61TENDT711 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 (edited) I'm guessing the reason you need to use the 673's pan is the 675's pan is too deep ?you sure you couldn't fudge the 2inches of clearance from some place else ?edit:I'm in the process of tracking down and M52a1 army 5ton 6x6 semi tractor which is powered by the same 673 i am planning on swapping either the 675=237hp 676=300hp E6=350hp engines, and if this happens to me i am going to try and gain the clearances need from another location rather then go messing with the crank case Mike Edited October 28, 2009 by B61TENDT711 Quote 1953 Studebaker M275.

Freightrain Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I've never heard anyone having problems with bigger pan? Only thing I know guys have to switch is water pump and maybe damper?

HK Trucking Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Sounds like it's one of those "ESI plus" motors that had 3 oil filters and an extra deep oil pan.Mack used those in some R & U model highway tractors..

M54A1 Posted October 29, 2009 Author Share Posted October 29, 2009 My engine has only 2 filters ,but the pan holds quite a bit more oil than the 673 pan, I called the Mack shop and they said there was a deeper pan used on some engines, but the pickup tubes where all the same. I would like to use the pickup from the 673 with the strainer bowl, but the pumps are different where pickups bolt on. I have also found that at some point the pump drive shaft/gear where changed from a spline driven pump gear to a machined on pump gear, Maybe the pickup bolt locations were changed at the same time.
