Is the timing cover easy to remove when the engine is out?? Is it too big or something?? I don't want to swap heads so that's why I asked you about the waterpump. I'll probably use the 2001 3L block. What is the purpose of the electric waterpump?? My mom has a 2000 taurus with the 3L duratec and the waterpump is in the same place as the 2.5L. It's run off the camshaft. I didn't see any wires hooked up to it as far as I know. The upper intake manifolds seem to be tall, will I still be able to close my hood?? Do I have to do some fabricating on the heads?? I really don't want to swap any major parts so that's why I asked.
