its only as hard as you make it really. It was no worse then putting a 302 in a fox car. Just use the right mounts,oilpan etc..

SleeperTbird, too bad we aren't closer...I've got a '88 2.3t that I gotta get something done with...far as i know, it's a good motor, I just wasn't able to start it cause the gas tank had been cut out of the TC when I bought it, but the engine did crank over well, no noises, and oil was clean and full.
I don't have the eec to it tho, and I wanted to keep the T5.
If you think you may be interested tho, keep me in mind.
FWIW, the whole car is in my barn, till i get the motor and trans pulled, it's not sittin out in the weather.
Package deal on it, i/c goes with it, mounts, alt. ac compressor, etc..i'm not pullin' anything off of it.

Dump in a 3.0 from a newer Ranger or B3000 and custom fab a turbo onto that! Of course, probably take quite a bit of time/money....

Looks like one of those optionless trucks with a 2.0 in it. I got one that looks just like yours but without the decals down the side.

Nah, that engine is a dog, it would need way more than a turbo. Now the 4.0 on the other hand would be a much better starting place.

3.0 have the Kenne Bell Supercharger. I like the 3.0 in my Escape, has enough power for me.
