Thanks for the responses and all the help so far through this project.
I think I will go with keeping this â??00 engine and getting the new heads from Buckshot. Also get the new rod bearings since itâ??s suggested and will be not that much extra work since I will be in the vicinity.
I have some questions I want to clarify for my My 3.0L w/ SVT cams and matched UIM/LIM Project:
1) I can use the water pump from my 2.5 engine to put onto my new heads from a â??01 engine?
2) The fuel rail will not need to be modified since I am using the SVT UIM?
3) I am using the 3.0L LIM and porting that instead of using the SVT LIM?
4) I am using the SVT timing chain and the 3.0L timing cover?
5) Will I have to optimize my TB?
Thanks in advance for the help. I have done the searching but as we are all human I could have missed the answer to one of my questions. Most of the questions on here have just become confusing aspects of this swap to me.
Go ahead and â??flame meâ? if you must.
