Marvin, I didn't realize that the Bronco II came stock with a 2.3L 4 popper. If you really have one, I would stick with it and just add parts to make it better. There is a lot you can do to gain horsepower from this engine, cams, exhaust, intake mods, etc. www.racerwalsh.com has stuff to make the 2.3 a real screamer.
