Hello, I'm the new old guy to this forum.
I have a 1988 2.0 Ranger that has severe Blow by I'm looking to either rebuild it or swap it out with something with a little more power but I'm having trouble because my engine is carbureted and everything I've been finding has EFI and I don't want to go through the headaches to change over to EFI. money is the other issue otherwise I would just go with a V8 conversion and the only place I've been able to find a rebuild kit for the 2.0 is a place called AMS Racing that was listed on eBay does anyone know anything about this company. any help would be appreciated

Rock auto has all the parts to rebuild the motor.
 
Predator swap.
 
I suppose if I was in your position I'd forego all of the *old* technology (and even a V8) & find a 2.3 Turbo powertrain/engine bay harness/fly-by-wire from a late Mustang & shoehorn that down into the waiting engine bay.
I could live with 300hp quite happily.
