Hello all! This is my first post and it’s kind of a engine/trans question all in one.
I have an automatic 1990 XLT b2 I’m rebuilding. Came with no engine making a swap a little bit easier. I’m currently rebuilding the 289 and have a few questions.
In y’alls opinion, what’s going to be the best transmission option? I have the A4LD underneath now, but from everything I’m reading it isn’t good for use other than 4cyl or 6cyl engines. Is a 4RE44 or 5Re55 going to be my better options?
Second, what kind of engine mounts did some of you V8 swaps guys use? Does my transfer case need to be swapped for use with the 289?
Thanks in advance,
Dan
