So I'm finally looking to do a V8 swap with my truck but after many hours of lurking and sifting I'm still somewhat baffled as to what exactly I need. I would like to swap in the 302.
Here's what I currently have:
1992 XLT Extended cab 2wd
Originally it was automatic with the 4.0; after an unfortunate accident befell my fathers '96 B4k, we decided to swap out the engine and the transmission out of the B4K and into my '92. So currently it has the engine and transmission from the Mazda, the intake from my '92, and the transfer case from the Mazda so the driveshaft would fit.
What I am wondering is what parts do I need to swap in a 302 and keep it manual, either with the current transmission or a different one if the current can't take the new motor. It also needs to pass emissions here in Colorado if that is an issue.
Thanks much!
