Which engine should I rebuild

[rancheroo]

I need to replace the 2.0 in my son's Ranger (long story). I have the 1988 2.0 that's in it now (not original engine), I also have the original engine, a 1988 2.3, AND I have a 1974 2.3 out of a Pinto.

Which engine would be the better one to rebuild? Is one head better than the other?

P.S. I changed the original EFI/computerized motor over to carb & no computer & am going to leave it that way.

i would use the 88 2.3, they make more horse stock then the other engines
