So I have spent the last couple nights researching and i havent got the answers im looking for.
I got my b2300 which I am currently Daily driving.
Its slow and i like fast cars/trucks
so i want to swap a 5.0 into it.
my questions are:
What is the best 5.0 to swap (like best donor car/truck) i read something about a 1998 explorer 4x4 having the best directed exhaust manifold to fit.
next question:
what do i do with my transmission? Do i swap the tranny, if so what with, and or can i just have the tranny built up stronger.
Last question: what do i do with the rear end? am i good to just Weld it securely? or should i get an LSD.
IF these could be answered that would be much much appreciated. looking to drop 1500-2000 on the swap, i looked up 5.0s around me and they are about 500 complete.
