Questions????

[French2007]

Well, I had orginally planned a 5.0L swap into my '94 Ranger, but have recently been considering adding a turbo to my 2.3L platform. If I decide to go the turbo route, what problems am I going to run into with the following plan?

1. 2.3L block with beefed up internals
2. Dual Plug head or Single Plug head? I have heard that the DP head flows better when ported than a Single plug head
3. T3 turbo with an External WG running 15-20psi
4. Big VAM and TC computer
5. Brown top injectors
6. ARP studs to keep the head from lifting

I know that I am missing some things, but this is the plan as of right now. I will be running the stock 5-speed tranny with an upgraded clutch if I go this route. Let me know what you guys think and what else I need to add to my list. Thank you for the help!

Nobody has any suggestions for me????? I'm buying another 2.3L block this week and will begin the build sometime in Feb. I'm just looking for the best route to go with this.

Look around at some of the recent threads in this forums. We've been through all these questions at least 2 or 3 times in the last month... Nobody feels like typing it all over again. Also look in the tech library, there is some good info about the swap there.
