I don't think that there is enough room front to back for that long an engine. The 2.9 is no where as long as a 300 and it is kinda thight in there.

it could be done, ive seen pics of a '82-'86 ranger 4x with it done, they had a body lift kit on it, upgraded the front axle to a solid axle (44 i think) and used a auto trans. thats alot of weight up front and alot of work, it would be easier to find another ranger-based-vehicle motor to put back in. a 4.0 ohv would be a good upgrade. just get the wiring harnes from the donor vehicle.
