Ford Taurus 24v swap heads witha Ranger 3.0
Hey i know that their are older ford Tauruses out their with 24 valve v6 3.0 engines making about 200 horse power at the flywheel and i was wondering if anyone has done a swap with Taurus's heads with the stock 3.0 ranger's 12v heads cause as many of u know the ranger only makes about 150 horse power at the flywheel. And if so what other mods would i have to do to tweak the engine to the tauruses 200 hp mark?

I believe the 24 valve Taurus engine uses overhead cams but I'm not sure. The 3.0 in the ranger is a pushrod motor. You could do it if you have a money tree in your backyard. But you might as well just swap in a 4.0 if you want to stay V6 or a 5.0 if you want V8 power.
