The 94 Ranger didnt come with a T-5 trans. The Ranger uses a Mazda 5speed trans and the bell housing and trans are one piece so it will not work.
I am doing a 5.0 swap on my 94 and I am using all the parts off af a 96 Explorer and a AOD trans. My truck had the 5-speed stick in it also and I am dumping it in favor of the automatic. I am using a 89 mustang computer and wiring for the ease of keeping it fuel injected. I would keep it FI if you have to go thru emissions and if that is not a problem then a carb would be easy to do also. Good luck.

The 4cyl (Mustang, T-birt, etc) T-5 uses a different bellhousing than a V8 T-5. (yes, some people have put T-5's on 4cyl Rangers)
