Default can a 302 be fitted to a 2.9l bronco II tranny

i have a bronco II 2.9 4x4 5spd says borg warner some place on the tranny or transfer case, not real sure which. but it has major electrical issues and i want to put a old school carbbed 302 in it to get away from all the electronics.every ranger/bronco forum is dead for posting and getting a response thought some one here might know though

You would have to use the 302 bell housing and the input shaft is also different

I dont remember Rangers and Bronco 2's having a T5.
S10's did for sure (I owned 2).

dont put a 302 in front of the 5 speed in that thing it will break it in a hurry they are not rated for high enough tq,
"Toyo Koygo 4 & 5 Speed & Mitsubishi 5 Speed[align=left]The Toyo Koygo 4 & 5 speed transmissons & the Mitsubishi 5 Speed have been used from 1983-1988. They are made in Japan and are very light duty. They only handle about 200 ft/lbs of torque and I don't recommend them. The input shaft on these transmissions have a metric spline count of 23. The diameter of the shaft is 1-inch, and it protrudes out from the face of the transmission approximately 9-inches and will require modification. [/align]In 1988, Ford started using a 5 speed transmission with a one piece case and an intrical bellhousing"
