anybody running a 302 or 351 efi in their cruiser?

my son & I are going to try a complete ford power/drivetrain swap off of my early bronco crawler to his fj40. 5.0efi motor/3 speed manual/twin sticked dana20. dana44 up front & 9"out back. I'll let you know how it turns out.

3spd manual?



Thanks for all the input guys, I appreciate it!!!

3.41 first gear. combine that with the 5.89's in the axles= nice crawl ration in 4lo.the fj's going to be offroad only anyway.

Bronco 3 speeds are not exactly robust. But, they are small

never had any issues with the 3 speed in my bronco 5.0 efi turning 39.5's. just a lot of broken cromo axles in the 44.
i'm droping in 1 ton axles & a c6/205 in the bronco & the oldest son gets the hand me downs for his fj40 project. he's only going to run 35's to start.

Np435 would be a good solution.
