There you go
We just finished up dropping a 12V in a ferd with the same front end. Its a heck of a swap but its all worth it when all is said and done. Good luck!

Looks good!!! Putting the V10 in a Ranger? That would be cool.

I skimmed the thread for an answer...but couldn't find one...
I'm curious...Why the swap? Other than the power/longevity of the CTD (which would be obvious). Was the 7.3 tired? Dead? Thanks! Tony

It's a V10 gas hog now. It was about 10k cheaper to buy a gas excursion vs. one with a powerstroke w/ 100k on it. Also, it's much easier, cheaper, and more fun to mod a cummins vs. a powerstroke.

Just ordered a MBRP stainless exhaust system and some Dipricol gauges (boost, EGT, fuel, and tranny) for the EX from Rip at sourceautomotive. Hope to make alot of progress this weekend.
 I just realized I've still got about 35 gallons of gas in the fuel tank  I intended on running it near empty before starting the teardown. Oh well, I guess I need to find a "few" gas cans... |

I got some small stuff done on it tonight. Removed the brake booster, vacuum tank, cruise control system, PS hoses and gear box (replacing it with a new one).
