Think didn't move a half inch. I had 6 straps on it, jackstands under the motor mount plates... er... engine mount plates, a large chunk of wood under the HB pulley.
When he said he included the harness I didn't know it was the complete front harness including things like:
Now that's getting the harness! I could put fuel to this thing and fire it up. Freon and I have AC lol.
Looks like a recent alternator, picture doesn't show it but there is a lot of yellow still on the pulley:
And the engine itself:
Checked the oil, it was full and looked like a few hundred miles. I have to pull the valve covers for gaskets this will tell me how good it was really cared for.
The dude I bought it from was going to put it in a Gen 1 Ranger for his son. Here is the gen 1. Looks like a project but it has some good things about it, the frame is in a lot better shape than normal. He knew the owner and used to watch this very ranger drive by when he was a kid and he wanted it then. Like I said it is a PROJECT.
He had some other projects around, turns out he is a mustang fanatic. He had a silver 2000 he just bought dark interior looked nice I didn't get pics but I would drive it. GT, 4.6 VERY good condition.
But it looks like his passion was Fox bodies here is the main project:
OH and the under side:
That's a HEALTHY 351W, manual valve body auto trans B&M trick shift, custom gauge cluster. All very clean.
OK that's the story, now I have to transplant a 4.0. I'll put it on the stand and strip some things off it. Time for a thread specific to that.
