98 2.5L in 91 Ranger?

Will this be a fairly easy swap? I have an opportunity to get the engine with wiring harness/ecu as well as a 5 speed tranny for a really good price! I know when I got the truck w/out motor, I was able to put in a 2.9L and it was all plug and play having the wiring harness from a 2.9L vehicle. Only thing I'm concerned with is the headlights, and maybe the dash configuration if it's different.

No responses yet? I'm a little suprised lol. I'm really hoping someone knows the answer so I can get in touch with the person selling it.

60K origional miles is Very tempting.

Motor, Tranny, Wiring Harness, ECU, Exhaust, are all included plus anything connected to the chassis. I'm not planning to use the chassis though.

You're trying to swap an EEC-V engine harness into an EEC-IV body harness... It's going to be alot of wiring trouble... Try and find something at least older than 95...

Thanks for that. Didn't even think of that part of it!
