84 2WD 2.3L Ford Turbo Blow thru 5 Speed Project
 
Hello everyone I have a 84 2WD that the trans died on,
So being that I have (5) 2.3L Turbo
Ford motors laying around I am going to install 1 it,
I have taken pics from the time I pulled the motor and will continue thru
the build,I know there are alot of builds on here but I haven't see any like I'm doing with a 2WD,I will be installing the 2.3L with a 5 speed using a bellhousing off a 88 turbo coupe that way I can use the hydraulic clutch,
I will be using a world class T5 trans The engine will have a T04B turbo blowing thru a carb running thru a front mounted inter cooler,(for now)
Rear mount air-water cooled will be in the future.I have owned this truck about 12-13 years the trans went out about 4 years ago and it was parked out back since then, Time to put it in the project line up.I am sure I will be flamed for installing a Ford motor in it but that's what I have Radially available
I did have this motor in a turbo coupe that was on the dyno and put 387HP
to the rear wheels,I think it will be fun as a daily driver.Well thanks for looking at the project start.more to come. Thanks John
