1988 Ranger 2.3 Turbo Swap

[db-ranger]

Trying to get this 88 Ranger 4x4, 2. 3 turbo swap off the ground. I have pulled the old 2.3 and have completed the build on te turbo out of an 87 Thunderbird manual trans. I kept the transmission from the Ranger and added a SPEC II clutch for the added pony's. Keeping the original wire harness and re-pining the the harness for the turbo computer. Running a front mount intercooler, 3 core radiator with electric fan. Going to run 3" exhaust all the way out. Swapped all te brackets and oil pan from the old motor over after a good cleaning, aand a little paint.
