C.Sanchez.A Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 Hey, I have a 1993 Mazda B3000 with the 3.0l v6. I want more power. Should I either get upgrades for the stock engine or do a complet engine swap?

sully Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 Get a donor car like a 5.0 mustang and put that into it. I helped a friend do a 5.0 swap into a mid 90's Ranger years ago and it was crazy fast when he was done.

Because I've heard the the 3.0 doesn't have many. I just want to get more input Quote Click Links To View Build Logs 1994 - Mazda B3000 (Daily/Toy/Show) 2002 - Mazda Protege (Daily) 1995 - Hyundai Accent (R.I.P.) 1984 - Bronco II (Restoration Project) Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeatBox Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 swap IMO would be alot better, if you can do it that is nothing like opening the hood and finding that doesnt belong there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is to do something like this the person has to have an understanding of what they're actually doing. By the sounds of it, the OP is not ready to handle something like this.

C.Sanchez.A Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 that mazda is pretty much a ford ranger It's not pretty much... it IS a ford ranger just with a few badge changes. Every part I have removed says ford on it. P.S. The problem might have been solved. I might be getting my hands on a S10 with a 350 in it already and in running condition.
