I have a 1984 Ford Ranger 4X4. It has a V6 with a C5 automatic transmission. I bought a C4 Bellhousing with hopes of putting a 289 V8 in place of the V6. Does anyone have some experience doing this. Not sur if this Bellhousing is going to work # RFC 50P-7976-A, and do I need a different Torque Converter or do I use the C5 one?

Doing things wrong, until I get it right.
Be sure to check out the Tech library at the top of the page. Tons of help here. Plenty of v8 swap info too.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
