Embodiments of a high-pressure, high power, reciprocating positive displacement fluid pumping system and methods are included. The system may include a high-pressure, high power, reciprocating positive displacement pump including a pump plunger, a fluid end block assembly, and a fluid cover. The fluid end block assembly may include a fluid end block body, a suction port, a discharge port, a pump bore positioned in and extending through the fluid end block body, and a fluid chamber positioned in the fluid end block body and in fluid communication with each of the suction port, the discharge port, and the pump bore. The fluid chamber has an open end portion, and the pump plunger may be positioned to move in the pump bore to pressurize one or more fluids in the fluid chamber. The fluid cover includes a monolithic body having a first portion and a second portion, the first portion being received in the open end portion and sealably engaged with the fluid end block body, the second portion being mechanically connected to the fluid end block body.
