Default D series moroso oil pan. anyone uses it? Can I use the stock pick up?

I just bought a pretty cheap moroso oil pan for my d16z6 as I will be boosting soon, it came with no pickup, can I use the stock one from the d16z6 or will I have to order the moroso one?

thanks

On moroso's website they have in small letters at the bottom... 1992-95 Civic EX & Si, 1988-92 all Civic/CRX Si Use Pickup No 24017.....So i guess that means your supposed to use theres but doesnt say if its 100% required

I wish I could speak from some vast degree of moroso experience, but lets quickly evaluate the pros and cons of going stock vs moroso's

(stock oil p/u) pros: save a little $, and a little time

cons: if you starve your engine of oil then you will be out a lot more money and a lot more time.

I cant tell you what to do, but I definitely know which way I would go...

...of course with a d series block at least it's not as expensive to replace as a b series, but still a lot more effort to rebuild/replace a block than an oil pick up!

good luck either way

your arguing a point without having any facts. you made up the senario that the stock one compromises all the **** you list.

Has anyone bought a moroso pickup and compared it side by side with a stock D16Z6 one? whats the difference? longer, shorter, etc.

NOBODY uses a moroso oil pan what pickup did you use?

I have the pan and the pick-up from Moroso on my car... I dont think that the stock one will fit ... the Moroso oil pick-up is designed sligthly different .... Dont mess with that... oh and he is bigger and pick the oil lower in the pan ...

Btw you will have to cut something on the rack who clamp on the crank ... I searched like 3 hours to see what was wrong... and also near of the oil pump it will probably be tight ..I had to gring to make it fit right !!!

Proud to save you like 4 hours loll

Could you please elaborate a bit more, What exactly do I have to do to make the pan fit? What is the rack who clamp the crank, is it the crank girdle? What do you mean by tight by the oil pan? thanks a lot for your reply
