I am swapping a 1996 Ford Explorer V8 into my 1997 Ranger 4x4 and have been looking through all of the required parts listed and talked about in all of the discussions I could find.
After some research I found the Trans-Dapt 97361 V8 Swap Kit that includes oil pan, headers, oil filter relocate kit, engine mounts, etc in a nice kit, available with both coated and non-coated headers. Has anyone ever used this kit? I did do some searches but can't find any discussion on it anywhere.
