Hi everyone.
I’m looking at Greg's Ford Ranger where he did the Lincoln mark 8 swap which is beautiful. I’m having trouble getting all my information together to do my own swap. I want to do the same DOHC v8 with a manual Trans. He illustrated many good points and pics but I’m having trouble with the terminology. What kind of Trans should I be looking for? Rear-end? Engine mounts? If I’m unclear I understand just let me know what I need to clear up in my questions. Also if there is another possible build that would be better let me know because that’s cool with me. Again I’m looking at some kind of v8 power, the DOHC would be nice but it is bigger. A manual Trans 5 speed OD; I just don’t know what all I need to connect the dots. I haven’t seen anyone do a swap on a newer model ranger like mine and talk about it so let me know what I’m missing and get some parts without abbreviations lol thanks.
