Howdy,
I'm getting interested in maybe picking up a small 60's Ford product as a daily driver. Since I am looking for more of a commuter car rather than a performance cruiser I'm thinking that the 2.5L "Lima" engine would be a fun power plant for a 4dr or wagon Falcon/Comet and I'd be real tempted to turbo it later.
For some reason I keep thinking that the Ranger is probably the best platform to try to pirate a new EFI engine out of since its very common, I'm thinking slightly heavier, and I could pick up the engine for cheap. Would I be better with a 3.0L Vulcan V6 or an 3.8/4.2L splitport Essex??
