It does. But it isn't bad at all on his truck. I got that engine cheap and gave it to him. I might change it later, but I doubt it. It has plenty of clearance and those hold more oil which will help keep oil temps down and oil longivity will stay up too.

You may already know but the 5.9 Cummins pans will bolt on either way. My engine had that same front sump pan. I just bought a rear sump pickup tube and spun the pan around and bolted it up. I can't remember what the application for the pickup tube was but it is deeper than a Dodge pan.

Your build is looking good.
