It's been discussed a couple times. More or less you would have to come up with custom mounts for sure.
I'm not even sure it if would be possible to use all your stock gauges and stuff (probably is possible but would take a lot of research).
Unless your going complete trail truck, I wouldn't do it. The 302 swap from an Exploder has been done many times and between here and RPS, there is easily enough info to get it done much easier.

You have to stay with in the same motor family in NC for it to pass inspection. Ford motor has to go in Ford, etc.

ok first of all how big is your STOCK motor. yea exactly. if someone wants to actually break out of the cookie cutter trend of mods around now who are you to pass judgement on anyone for that. Think of it this way. Atleast its an AMERICAN motor. i could understand having stupid comments if someone wanted to swap in a toyota 4.7L or something. And by the way i didnt know the part about NC law. i understand now.

Piece of cake!
I say "GO FOR IT"!
But I'm kinda open minded myself...........like the Ranger better than the S10, and everybody & their brother has a V8 S10...........BUT, I can build 2, almost 3 SBC's for the price of 1 SBF, and get more bang for my buck!
Got proof too.........done it twice on 3rd generation Rangers!
Post up some pics on your build either way PLEASE!
