There is a V8 conversion forum specifically for these types of questions... Don't know if a moderator would have the ambition to move it. Please direct further V8 conversion questions here:

Also please search as your question has already been covered.



Look up Ford Racing or Painless wiring harnesses. They simplify things, but you'll pay for it.

You can use 5.0L harness as well.

I wouldn't even consider using the stock harness, but I guess it could be done with adding a bunch of pins and wires to the 60 pin computer harness, going through the wiring on the Ranger and 5.0L / changes, then plugging the 5.0L PCM into that.. Would be a nightmare.

It's wiring... Just as long as the connections get from point A to point B, it doesn't matter. I guess the question is, how convoluted you want your wiring setup to be vs. how much you expect to spend?
