Hi everyone, I'm new here and i have an 88 ranger 2.9L 5 speed 4x4. The 2.9 is hurting so i bought a carburated 302 for it, I was talking to a guy and he said instead of buying the advance adapters kit for the transmission to bolt up the the 302, i could get a bellhousing and flywheel from a 5.0L mustang? is this true? is that all I need to bolt it up to my 5 speed tranny? and what else do I need for the swap? bigger rad from what? any info would be greatly apprietiated, thank you.

That will never happen and if it did the torque of the 302 would destroy that weak little trans. :icon_rofl:
You will need a mustang T5 trans to do the swap if you want to keep it a stick shift.
Like what was already said use the search button as it is your best friend here right now. :icon_thumby:
