I'm not sure if I'm just siking myself out on the swap. I've spent hours reading, and searching. I just can't figer out which one would be the easiest to swap into a 89 Bronco II. I fully understand that the 97.5+ have the GT40P heads which are the best factory heads. But because of the PATS system i'm not sure if its the easiest to swap in. I read that you can do away with that by just stabbing a distributor and running a stang 89-93 engine harness. to me the cost of buying/finding the harness, just to run the better heads when I could swap out the stang heads later down the road for better heads than the GT40P heads. And you also have the 96 explorer 5.0 which is non PATS but doesn't have the GT40P heads. The biggest thing is that I get knee deep in a thread of reading and just to find out its to a 96+ ranger which is totally different than my broncos wiring. I just am not sure which one is the easiest swap for a 89 bronco II. I'm gona do a C5/C4 trans (I have a C5 already) I've just found a lot of the info gets mixed with 96+ ranger stuff and I guess that is what is confusing me the most.
