I have a 88 ranger with a 351w I was told it was a early 70's engine. Oil dipstick is on the front of the engine. It's still v drive belt. I have a 02 302 out of a explorer and wondering if I am swap all the serp belt and accesories over to it?
 
You have both motors to look at. All you have to do is look at the mounts for the items you want to swap. Most likley you won't be able to do it. I don't know of anybody who has been able to do it. I have friends with both motors and they never even tried to do it. Two different styles of blocks. Differerent locations for the dipstick s as well.
 
Not to mention that the 351 is a taller block and kept SAE threading until end of production but the 302 block switched to metric in the late 90s.
 
If that want work. Is their any option I can do to get it over to a serp belt
 
Your best best it to go find a 90's 351 and take all of it's stuff.
