Re: Project "ForD55" - 4D55 Turbo Diesel - 94 Ranger 4x4
I agree completely, it's just when people start threads about 'diesel conversions' it seems every other is "I want to put a 4BT in my truck, who can tell me what I need to do?" I'm glad I crossed...

4bt's are like the holy grail it seems of diesel conversions, but this one is just fine for my standards. It's a quite a bit smaller, a ton lighter. If I ever found one for the right price I'd be...
