.I've googled with varied opinions returned in the results, so if you happen to know how much each of these weigh let me know...I'm mainly trying to find out how much difference in weight there is between the 460 and 3.8 SC motor to see if the 460 is worth the extra weight. I'm looking for...
.I recently got a normal job where I'm home every day instead of a couple days a month, so I'm finally getting started on my '93 Ranger, and wanted to see how the motor would fit. Even though the motor has the wrong oil pan and isn't close to being ready, I still wanted to see how it...
.The 460 that I'm going to swap into my '93 Ranger has a new Carter carb on it, number 9755S 2935. I think it's like this one maybe http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-1411/The engine will stay stock except for an intake and maybe a cam, will still have exhaust manifolds probably.I know...
.Thanks for the information, I had no idea to check the top of the heads. I'm still gonna swap a 460 in, but I'll keep this 4.0 around if it's still good. Usually I scrap whatever I pull, even if it ran! 'smiliedoh'.
.I need some parts for a project I'm working on, so nothing is time sensitive... even if you come across some of this stuff in a few months let me know. I haven't decided for sure if I'm going 2wd or 4x4 with this project, so items 1 through 3 will be needed for sure. Items 4 through 6 I...
.I'm open to suggestions and not set on an 8.8, was just thinking of it as an option. What the plan is... drop a 460/C6/205 in my '93 2wd Ranger and put a narrowed D44 up front and something in the rear to match, but it would have to be stock width.I have a D60 rear, but it's nearly...
.Something else I wonder, how much more abuse could it take with an aftermarket locker and axle shafts?I can put some coin into it and still be cheaper than narrowing a 14 bolt axle..
.Suppose somebody had a mildly built 460 and an 8.8 geared 3.73 with 36's on it in a Ranger, how much abuse could the 8.8 handle?The 8.8 would be from a late 90's Explorer, so it would have the bigger 31 spline axles. The Mustang guys put a lot of power through the 8.8... but that's with...
.Thanks for the reply! I won't need the horn relay, so no need to worry about that one.I wonder if I can get an alternator with an internal regulator?.
.What are these parts? Maybe voltage regulator for the first? And I have no idea about the second one, it was on the passenger inner fender near the starter solenoid.
