- 1991 Ranger
Hey guys- I got a good deal on a NOS Motorcraft rebuilt 1998-2000 OHV short block. I would like to build it for my 1991 ranger and put it in to replace the old tired 4.0 OHV. Unfortunately, I am pretty not smart about this stuff. Wondering if some of you can help me. I am not looking to make it more powerful or trick it out. I really just want a reliable good for another 300k miles engine.
I think I need different heads than I have in my current ranger- and different pushrods. Can anyone tell me which heads and pushrods would be good ones to put in?
Will everything else off my old engine bolt on? Anything else I need to buy? I am assuming ill need new gaskets and such for valve cover, oil pan, oil filter extension thingy.
