Forget CARBS!!! EFI for the win, in fact OBDII and EFI with MAS and DIS!!
302, 306, 331, 347 can all run with an Explorer computer
Trhe explorer computer wants to see the 4r70w trans, if the trans is not there then you need some PCM programming, not a huge deal these days but does add some $$$ to your project.
Yes that is the ATK 302 we used in a 84 ranger project
We mated it to a 4r70w automatic and a twin sticked Np205
You can mate yours to a 5 speed but the explorer PCM needs to be flashed to forget about the automatic, this is about $300-500 these days to have done
Spec on the ATK gt40 is 365hp at the crank with 302 displacement
You can easily get more power with more displacement, we wanted to keep some sort of mpg this truck is driven from CO to Yellowstone at least once a year. Highway it has seen 18 mpg but gets around 12-14 normally
