[QUOTE="hotcobra03, post: 15731528, member: 53096"] I was a 1st timer doing mine, I did both way's in car and out.. I found it to extremely simple.. I think a head issue is more common than gasket to go bad.. what I liked is head is completely together and just needs to be bolted.. timing chain was just connect the dots. NOTE..when reading manual,drivers side is left side,, I also found I was able to pull head with long tube header still attached when doing over fender,which was a large plus. another note, when I had pulled engine to do heads,I found the oil pump screen almost 50% blocked from debris, silicone and timing chain plastic guide chips..it was also in tube at oil cooler.. I was the second person in motor,ford had done the 1st head under warranty.. ford had done it over fender..took him 3 days [/QUOTE]
