Most of the time they come with the sump in the rear, not in the front. But once in a while they are front sump, they can easily be flipped and you need to get a different oil pick up. I would not worry about it until you get an engine. If you do buy a 4BT, try to by one that came from a Ford van, then it will have the bolt pattern you need. It is not hard to come by the Ford pattern. The GM seem to be the most expensive...
