Nice looking truck, and very nice finished V8 swap

I assume a mild climate location since there is no heater box/fan or heater core/hoses

Or windshield wipers.

Definitely a fair weather and/or dragstrip truck.

Hey I was just wondering how the coyote fits in the engine bay? I’m thinking about doing a coyote swap in my 2002 ford ranger xl and was wondering if I’m gonna have to cut my fire wall back any?

That's not a Coyote engine, it's a pushrod small block. Also, his Ranger and yours are not very similar.

How about you go throw one in your Ranger and tell us how well it fit since I haven't found anyone doing that swap yet.

That’s the way I’m leaning to because I hear all about ls swap ford rangers but I want to keep it ford power and make it unique

Find me a decent priced coyote. Everyone seems to think they’re filled with gold.

Well I got a friend who’s gonna sell me the block with no heads. Then I’m gonna build it up from there. Any recommendations on what transmission I should put in? I’m currently auto I would swap to manual but would rather keep it auto
