Title: 2.0 vs 2.3 intake
Post by: 1974pintowagon! on June 04, 2017, 03:56:44 AM

Will a 2.0 intake interchange with a 2.3?

If it's the 71 to 74 year 2.0 it would be a no ,

Ok my next question is how can you tell and older 2.0 from a 2.3? Aftermarket that is.

For the early 2.3 it's easy , the 2.0 intake ports are round on all ports , the 2.3 the two outer ports are oblong, if you can find some photos of the intake gaskets you will see it very easily,

Damn well l I ended up picking up a CANNON ALUMINUM intake that the guy said wouldn't work on on his 2.0 so he must of had a 2.3 because this intake has round intake ports all across. Guess it's time to sale it😶

Well it does not fit the 2.0 pinto engine , its fits the ranger with the carb set up , 83 to 88 ,

So this intake will not work on my 2.3 either? Only the newer ranger 2.0/2.3?
