4.0 swap.
I was wondering how hard it would be to swap a 3.0 for a 4.0 in a 93, Ranger. Has anyone out there done this and how much work is involved and also I have heard from some friends that a v8 swap is easy and some say it is very hard.I need some answers please.

Will I have to change out the wiring harness and the cpu? Will they have to match up to the engine that I choose if I can find one? I am just so frustrated at the lack of go fast goodies for the 3.0. I look at RPS and there is a wealth of hot stuff for the 4.0.

They are daily drivers that will easily give you 200000+mi.
The cost of a 4.0 is more then your 93 Ranger is worth.
Sell your 93 and buy a newer Ranger with a 4.0 and save the headaches.
All the V8 swaps I have seen are NOT FOR STREET USE vechicles (ca smog issues)
