If you were going to do an engine swap, which engine would you choose?
Ford 302 5.0L
or

I know people are going to crap themselves by me saying this, but I want to swap a LS1 into my ranger eventually down the road, whats everyone else think?

you can't build a motor any cheaper than a small block Chevy

that would be sweet and could be built to be a monster!

Personally, I'd go with the 302. Simply because in my case it's much more well documented on how to do the swap. I'm too new at all this stuff to start tearing into a full blown swap that no one has ever done.
Now granted obviously your a bit different knowledge level then me... so take my vote for what it's worth.
On a side note... making a 347 Stroker would be sweet.
