I have done this swap...
things you need from your engine
upper and lower intake
timing cover
water pump
belt accessories w/ brackets
cam (truck cams has more torque at lower rpms)
motor mounts
valve covers
exhaust manafolds
oil pan
things you need to buy
complete gasket set (ranger) includes head gaskets
timing chain
main seals
oil pump
all your really using is the bottom end and heads.
do NOT use the probe motor it has solid lifters and cant be converted.
its all bolt up no mods needed.
also as a bonus if you find a flex fuel motor, use non flex fuel heads to bump up the compression for more power.
