Donor engines for 1983 Ranger V6

[Masland]

I've got a first gen V6 Ranger with a seized engine. Everything else on it looks great. What do people recommend as a replacement? I'm thinking of picking up an '85 B2 V6 for that purpose.

Any thoughts or suggestions? I'd appreciate it.

yes, that would work, or just do a rebuild, a used '85 2.8l will have some miles on it, like yours does now

Good info here on the 2.8l: http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/2_8L_Performance.html

Thanks for the speedy reply, Ron. A lot for me to digest through that link.

I appreciate it!
