Re: 2.5 to 3.0 questions

Full ’04-’05 Taurus Conversion
All 3.0 parts
-UIM
-LIM
-Throttle Body

External Alterations
-Trim for alternator bracket
-Trim crank bushing
-Timing cover swap
-switch timing wheel to 2.5 position
-Crank pulley from 2.5
-2.5L valve covers (coil pack mounts on one of them)
-Use '01 Cougar motor mount
-trim motor mount
-Use 2.5 oil pan
-pickup tube from 2.5
-possibly bend bracket for pickup tube

Fuel Modifications
-Injector plug wiring
-use 3.0L injectors
-'02 Escape fuel rail
-so rail exits on correct side
??Other necessities for converting from returnreturn-less

Other Mods
-EGR tube fabrication
-Vacuum lines
-Knock Sensor
-Wire in 3.0 sensor
-Throttle Body bracket
-Frankenstein 3.0 bracket and 2.5 bracket

Anything I am forgetting anything?

(the Escape rail is use just to get the rail to exit on the correct side; it doesn't solve the return-->returnless prob)
