Ok, so the 01 up 3.0 heads are the only ones with the cam driven water pump correct? How about the SVT intake fitting these heads? i know the bolt pattern is the same but I also heard it gets rid of the long/short runner setup somewhat, since it has a merged intake port. I can see this maybe being a problem, but obviously Ford doesnt. The 4.6 Cobra motors have a long/short runner design like ours, but the '00 Cobra R's have a Single runner that still uses a 4-valve. I havent seen the '01 3.0 heads yet but, is there any way to maybe weld in a separation, or would it be better to just port the intake backwards up into the runners a little ways? It would still be short/long runner design seeing as how the secondary ports still wouldnt let any air by. Or would we be best getting rid of the runner controls all together? The SHO's do this and gain some power with sacrifice to low-end torque. Comments?
