2.3 cylinder head

2.3 cylinder head
Got '92 ranger 2.3l 5 speed 2wd. Just replaced head gasket and its still smocking white smoke badly. I cleaned head and resurface valves, and changed valve steam seals, still same as before. Now I found whole engine for sale , its 2.3 out of '97 ranger 2wd, and I'm not sure if it's gonna fit in my '92, and what needs to be changed. Should I go with this, or just get new head. Any suggestions. Thanks

I would try another head and have the new or used head inspected for cracks. I tried a similar swap once on a coworker's truck and had no luck, the reason was that the crank sensor locations and types are different and the truck would not run with the newly installed engine. I was trying to install a 1995 2.3L ranger engine into a 1990 model truck. Hope this helps.
