Just make sure it stays on the 2.5 just as it came off. This is because you still use all the 2.5 timing components.

I am swapping over my cams from my SVT onto my 3.0L and I can�t remember if I saw a threat about telling the difference between Taurus cams and the SVT cams. I thought I remembered the SVT cams having a green stripe on them.

I took the part number from my cam F73E-6A269-BA and checked the web without any results. I don�t know what I am worried about, I just thought for a second I could have been screwed and the seller to never think I would go in there to notice. I just like reassurance

This is how much time I would take to label.


The 3.0L Block


SVT Cams on 2.5L



2.5L Timing Chain


3.0L Block Cleaned Up


SVT Cams removed


I broke the motor mount bolt trying to tighten it to 43Nm


Gaskets on 3.0L Block


3.0L Timed and 2.5L Block being sad and naked.




Everything so far has gone well. I ran into a couple problems including that bolt breaking. I need buy a couple more gaskets that I didn�t think I would need like the crank seal on the timing cover, also the crank bolt that I didn�t know was a TTY. Tomorrow I am going to get the bearings pressed on the Torsen and the SVT Flywheel resurfaced. I will post pictures tomorrow and updates. If anyone can still answer the question above it would be awesome.

I am confused on this sensor from the 3L Block compared to the 2.5L Block. I tired to swap over the 2.5 Sensor and it wont fit on the 3L Block. Anyone help me out on this?

I'm pretty sure that is the knock sensor.

Any idea of how the SVT Knock sensor fits on the Taurus Block?

Either splice the Taurus sensor into the 2.5L harness, or drill and tap the block for the 2,5L sensor. todras prefers to drill and tap, while most other prefer to splice in the connector to use the 3L sensor.
