TurboCoupe 2.3L Turbo in '84 Ranger

[Blueovalboy89]

I am in the process of swapping the 2.3L Turbo motor out of my '86 thunderbird turbo coupe into my '84 ranger 4X4. I ve got the stock 2.3 carb/na motor out of the ranger and am fixing to pull the turbo motor out. I tore the dash apart too get a better look at the wiring and this thing has all kinds of wiring for extra options like power windows, seats, locks, electronic climate control, etc. Has anyone ever done a swap like this, and give me some tips on converting the turbo harness into the ranger?

imagine how easy it would be, plug the motor up and you only have 3 more wires to add, constant 12v, switched 12v, and ground!

I appreciate it man. Yeah this will save my sanity. I didnt realize that they made a harness kit like this. Hope its worth the money.

A bit pricey in my estimation being that the stock wiring isn't that difficult to modify and connect.shady
