Hey guys just signed up and am glad to be here. I just bought a 2002 Ranger Edge with the understanding the motor is shot, 3.0. Looking for the best and most cost efficient way to bring it back to life. Please guide me on what is compatible as a swap and what to look for that might represent real value.

Not sure if this was bought at the money but the body is dent free and mostly scratch free. Seats heavily stained and will need tires. Automatic Tranny . Will really clean up pretty nice. $400 with a clear title.

My hobby interest is in musclecars, Chevelles, but I run a ranch for a living so Ford trucks do the work around here. Thanx in advance.

John
