Pick up pipe is different and needs modding, so no, not easily.

How much does the pipe need modifying? Have a mig welder, presuming it's steel, can easily cut and weld?

Pipe needs to be cut and altered, pref purge welded i believe, dip stick made shorter and either remove or bend the top windage tray in to accommodate

Will the x14xe pick up pipe fit the x18xe1? Will it not just bolt out & bolt in?

As far as I can remember, the x14xe one would be too short and too shallow for the x18 sump, do you'd have issues with the oil pressure.

I'm pretty sure the bolt pattern onto the block is different too, which is why when using an x14/16 sump on an x18, Warren used the x18 pick up pipe and had it welded.
