Hey guys I just joined and was looking for some help. I'm currently looking at swapping out my 2.3 for a 5.0 in my 93 2wd ranger xlt and i was wondering if anyone had some tips. I've never done an engine swap before but i do have the donor engine from a 94 f-150. I'm 17 so really don't know all that much when it comes to swaps. i know i do need a new transmission and mounting brackets. I have a M5OD-R2 transmission picked out to go in it.
