Yes, so any suspension mods are on the faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar back burner. As it is, I'm running against two mini cooper S.

welding is done..now it's the porting that is a pain.

jaged · 03-16-2005, 01:08 PM

so are you doing a hybrid or a 3.0 with the 2.5 uim? Why would you have to weld the ports if its a direct swap?

slurpee · 03-16-2005, 01:40 PM

3.0 with 2.5 upper and lower intake manifold. The 2.5 lower intake has a dual port, and their freakin' huge to. The 3.0 has an oval and they're extremly small. So basically, last night I was cutting the 3.0 head to enlarge the oval to match the lower intake manifold. Let me see if I can get a pic. It'll be easier to see what I'm talkin about.

slurpee · 03-16-2005, 01:50 PM

Here's the 3.0, the top pic, is the original, the second is the welding that needs to take place, plus he had already made a new port on the left side of the oval, and the third is the actual widening of the oval port to make more of a dual port.

jaged · 03-16-2005, 02:14 PM

i see. doesnt the 3.0 upper flow better than the 2.5 though?

sonza68 · 03-16-2005, 02:26 PM

That's been debated, bverything I've seen has been hypothetical. Until somone actually hooks a 3.0L UIM to a flow bench we'll never really know. The biggest benefit is that the 2.5L manifols only require porting the heads, while the 3.0L manifold required several modifcations to work on the Cougar (IMRC, EGR, IAC, and some other stuff I'm forgetting right now).

MetallicaCougs · 03-16-2005, 02:28 PM

yeah, just curious why you arent going with the 3.0?
