No details on the HD option, but it used a different cap. Probably an extra row of tubes?

i will have to look to see how many rows of tubes mine has. if i have to take the engine out of the f5 do i need to support the trans.i noticed in another thread a fellow had a f3 without a engine and the trans still in.
