I'm helping a friend with his '89 Ranger. I know the 2.3 well, but not in a Ranger. Upon removing the cam cover, we've discovered that one of the head bolts had lost it's head (it broke right below the head). Obviously the head needs to come off, and so now we've essentially got one head stud to clear as the head comes straight up and off. I'm concerned the head will not clear the firewall and suddenly this becomes a much bigger job. Anyone know for sure one way or the other?
