Thanks keith,
that's just the info I was looking for.
Tell me more about the diesel oil pump swap...
the motor is an 84 1.8 solid lifter JH,
so I suppose an 84 diesel oil pump is the one I want, right?

What is the differences between the oil pumps- the outgoing pressure? The 
size of the gears?  I thought they'd all be the same.

Is there a negative to having a higher volume oil pump in there? Too much 
pressure can be a bad thing... Ask the bug guys with Melling high-volume 
pumps and substandard spin on oil filters--- KABOOM!  eeww...
