Is this engine/tranny from a Ranger?

I wish that would fit in my SVT Contour. That would make a great replacememt for the tired 2.5.

I will buy it from you if you are interested and nearby. Send me a private message if your interested and we will work something out.

I'm actually in Vegas so not too close. I'm still up in the air on keeping it or not. I do have an 82 F100 that is sitting with no engine or tranny. It originally had a 302 in it but this V6 makes more HP than it did! I'm just not sure if I want to tackle a project like that yet. I may check the local salvage yards here to see if I can find a wrecked LS with a ECU in it. Anyone know if it would of had a separate TCU for the tranny or is it part of the main ECU?

Just remember a fmall engine that makes a lot of power generally doesn't make much torque so it has to spin like hell.

Does a F1 engine make more power than an over the road truck engine? Yep.

Will it make a good OTR truck engine? HELL NO!!!

This V6 actually makes 100 more hp and only 12 lessft/lb of torque than the F100's original 302 it had. I doubt I will go that route now after thinking about all the other things that would have to be custom fabbed.
