Sump position

Hi to the forum
A quick question corect me if I am wrong but the commodore gen 3 and gen 4 motors have the sumo at the front where as the tb42 has it at the back?
While the motors fit or do you have to change sumps.
This is for a GQ with no body lift.

Plugs

Hi roc70y
I have converted my 89 carby GQ to efi using the factory nissan manifold.I have only changed the plugs once and I gave up and removed the throttle body assembly to get to the middle plugs maybe a nissan ploy to increase service charges.
