OM617 Mercedes Diesel Modified Narrow Oil Pan
#11
If you don't use the stock MB air filter, how will you deal with the oil that currently works it way from the valve cover over to the air filter before draining down into the oil pan?
I've been chewing on the possibility of moving the pickup further back and I can't see where it would inhibit the oil pump by extending the pickup apx 4". My only concern is whether it would place stress on the oil pump unit. Were you guys thinking of supporting it somehow if you extended it back or do you think the rubber foot resting on the bottom of the oilpan is enough?
Looking forward to your pictures.
