Re: turbo
My best suggestion is to join up and start reading. Theres plenty of builds over there from mild to wild and will give you a good idea of what you're looking at to get to the level you want to be at.

Just remember that even if you upgrade the drivetrain for the towing, you still have a compact truck suspension/brakes/etc. Just something to think about before you have too big of expectations.

Re: want to swap the 5 speed from a 93 f350 into my ranger
iirc, the transmission sits too far forward, making it hard to shift into 1st, 3rd, and 5th without hitting the dash and I'm not sure about the xfer case. I could be wrong though.

Re: what diesel motor is better
I do believe that International dropped out of the deal somewhere during the 6.0 period. When the 7.3 was produced, IH/Navistar were a pair and to my knowledge the 6.4 was solely navistar
