  1. 2.3L ('83-'97) Will 94 accessories fit an 84 SVO engine?

    Hi all, I have an 84 SVO (2.3 Turbo) block and am wondering if the ranger accessories and accessory mounts will fit. I would like to keep power steering and the alternator in the same spot at least, keeping the AC might be a little difficult LOL. Thanks, dev

    Newbie to the forums, not to the Ranger

    Hey, I'm Lenny from Massachusetts One of my first vehicles was a 1986 Ranger regular cab short bed with a 2.0L 4 speed plus overdrive manual in Light desert tan. It was inherited from my uncle who passed. Was a work truck with no options at all. No power steering, no power brakes, no radio...

    Howdy, I'm a senior in high school with a 1999 ford ranger regular cab with the 2.5 lima w/5 sp. I want it to be turboed eventually, hopefully by next year after graduation. It's my only way of transportation as of now. I'm not rich, so I bought another 2.5 engine with a blown headgasket and...

  6. 3.0 Flex Turbo QuarterHorse tuning [.bin NEEDED]

    So I'm building a turbo 2000 Ranger and decided to tune it with Moates's Quarterhorse J3 chip. To use the TunerPro RT software (to do real-time tuning), I need the .bin file from a 98-2000 3.0 Flex ECU, as well as the .xdf (base tune file?), which I think I have, and .adx files. If someone knew...

  9. 2.3 tib removal to remove the oil pan?

    I'm thinking about getting a 97 ranger for my turbo project and I'll need to put my forged pistons in.. my main question would be while I have the tib out would it be possible or worth it to remove whatever left to drop the pan and get access to the crank?

    Just scored a 93' STX for free.99 and am highly motivated to get started on a new project. I just did a V8 conversion (automatic and carbureted) so I'm confident I can do another.
