68 ranger engine swap
I'm thinking about swapping my original 240 out for a 351W what are yalls thought on ditching a matching numbers motor for the winsor? Also have a couple questions about fit meant to my transmission I have a 3 on the tree and really don't want to mess with removing the clutch pedal and all that stuff right now will my bellhouseing , cluth assembly, and transmission bolt up to the winsor? Or should I be looking for a c4 or c6 trans and go ahead and swap out the colum for an automatic colum?

The W should bolt up to the bell. You will need 302 engine perches from I believe 68-79. The swap shouldn't be very complicated using items for 302.
You are not going to hurt the value of the truck. IMHO

You can also use the perches/towers for 77-79 351M/400 trucks as per ND.
