Hey Guys,
I have the 2.9L pulled out of my 88 ranger after I started getting water in the oil and oil in the water (years ago). I am assuming either head gaskets or a cracked head(s). Initially I was gonna swap to a 4.0 but I don't want to have to deal with the wiring. and would just like to get this thing running as easily as possible. Engine has around 200,000 miles on it so I am looking to get a new remanufactured engine and am wondering where and how much you are getting them for. I've found a few online places who've quoted anywhere from 1500-2300. Just curious if anyone has went this route and can recommend a reputable place to get a reman from/what to look out for or any advice really.
Thanks,
Wyant
