302 Swap

[Southernfarmer]

I currently have an 85 ranger with the 2.3L OHC automatic. It has this bad knock to it I was wondering what all I would need to do to swap it out with a 302? Also if I went back with a 2.3L what year range would it have to be from?

Try the search function. This topic has been brought up a lot. You would need all the V8 stuff (harness) for example, and a trans and a better rear end or use yours 'till it 'splodes.
