Ok, I am very curious now.
I have located a 99 taurus 3.0L which I was going to order next week!
I gather there are problems with 2.5l heads going on the 3.0 block. Does the block overlap the 2.5 heads? By that I mean, when the heads set on the block, can you still see part of the block? If so, do the oil/water passages actually chance leaking outside the engine?
How much bigger are 3.0L heads than the 2.5L heads? Would I be better off finding the 01 motor, or just keeping the 99 motor?
If anyone took pictures of the 2.5l head before installation, and the 3.0l block this would be great.
