All of Ray's products are great and reasonably priced. BUT, try to talk to Cabell Garbee and/or Charles Talbert (he's in North Carolina, advertises in Military Vehicles magazine 4BT conversions - maybe he has kits by now). If you do a Cummins you will need a Ranger overdrive from Advance Adapters ($1500), 4.89s would make it even better.
If you don't have 4.89s with the 318/360 you will want an overdrive also; no sense pushing the V8 at 3600 at 65 mph. The Ranger has a 0.73 ratio, effectively dropping 5.83 to 4.26.
