Good point already got a couple questions. 1 when I get the motor anything I should change before I put it in. 2 there is a guy in Ohio i think sells them already with tranny. I realize that it's a 2wd tranny what about just dropping that in with the 7.5 rear as 2wd until i find a 250 with axles and tranny and t case to use. And 3 I realize extra weight means having to modify the suspension should i just run like 2inch lift coils up front to even it out or is there a better route?

1. If its a good running engine... Just the oil.
2. I wouldn't recommend the 7.5 behind anything bigger then a 5hp lawn mower engine. But of you drive like a normal person, they can last a long time.
3. Your guess is as good as mine... My engine isn't in yet and I have a torsion bar suspension. Ask dave how much his truck dropped when he swapped his 4bt in.
I think I am going to compound the 12v I picked up last month. Get that thing done for Carlisle next year! maybe mine will be out of the shop by then haha
Yeah... I don't see either of them happening.
What kinda parts you got?
2 OHVs, 2 SOHCs, 2 5r55e, a 2000 explorer with no title, torque monster headers for a 1-3 gen ranger, bolra headers for a OHV, a dozen doors or so, d35, a few d44s, an eb 9", a ranger bed trailer, a '94 cobra, and a ton of other stuff I don't recall... Ask and I'll let you know if I have it.
My wife asked me how many trucks I could build with all my spare parts... I told her "I plead the 5th on the grounds that I may incriminate myself" and walked away.
