Hey All,
New here and found lots of info on this swap.
I have a few holes to fill. I have a 86 couger with a 5.0, auto tranny and the ranger is a 88 SC 4X4 with the 2.9, 5 speed, shift on the fly t case.
1) The question is I would like to keep the Trans and t-case stock till it fails. I think they are the Mitsubishi tranny and borg warner t case. How worthy are these behind a 5.0 mild build?
2) The computer from the couger is for the auto trans. Do I need to find computer from a manual to keep the EFI or put a carb on it? I think yes?
Is there a aftermarket stand alone computer for the EFI available?
Any other issues I should worry about?
Thanks all,
Ken
