My motor blew and I found one solid out of a 96 ranger, but will it be direct bolt in or is their differences?

If your 2001 has the aluminum upper intake manifold, then that will be the same.
Use your cam shaft position sensor as the one for the 96 may be different.
The block and the heads will be the same, and even if the 96 is flex fuel, it will work, but you have to use your injectors.
