Model A oil pans

[mikebowling]

The motor in my roadster has an oil pan with just a plug in the bottom - my coupe has a pan that has a plug and an access plate to pull the oil pump out without dropping the pan . QUESTION; can these be interchanged ?? Thanks- always learning!

Its my understanding the access plate was used on early vehicles and that all the pans can be interchanged.

Just beware of the oil pump spring. On later pans the spring is on the pump, not fastened to the pan.
