Ive got a 1987 ford ranger with about 15 inches of suspension lift and 3 inch body lift. i got a dana 44 hp up front and 8.8 in the rear for diffs. right now i got 4:56 gears. i got the stock 2.9L in with the 5 speed and borg warner
1354. i want to swap in a 351 out of a 1991 bronco. its fuel injected and has an automatic tranny. i got the whole vehicle and i was wondering what i would need and if this is a good vehicle to do the swap out of and in to.thank you for the feed back.

the 351 is a great engine for the swap. Id throw a c4 behind it with a c5 tailhousing and output shaft so you can keep the 1354 t-case and not have to touch your driveshafts. Saves alot of money.
