Datsun#1 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 So I have an extra engine from a 280z. Everything is there. I also have a Ford ranger body the is in decent shape. Thinking of putting a Z engine in it. The stock 4cy in the ranger puts out a lowsy 98hp new so I'm thinking with the Z engine it should have a lot more get up and go.has anyone done this before? I've searched but can't seem to find anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grillhands Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Lol.. I'm pretty sure you'll be the first. If you got the money you can make any engine fit in any vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skirkland1980 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I've seen a 4 cyl ranger engine in a z. But not vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
