This is a kit for 2002-2003 3.0l Ford Ranger

The ranger uses basically the same Vulcan engine as my 98 Taurus, with fwd to rwd eception

Can this kit be converted for my engine?

I would email the company. But At the price af the kit and your car you could get the 97-98 SHO and already start out with as much HP as the kit will give you.

true, but then i'd just have another run of the mill "is the cam good or not" 96-99 SHO

Cams have been known to fail on 97-98. But you can have them welded several companies offer the service and it works like a charm www.shoforum.com

Actually the problem has been reported on 96 and 99 models to, it wasnt a model year problem it was an engine defect by Yamaha at the very begining of the GEN 3 SHO era.

On the other hand, I could buy a remanufactured 3.4L for around 2k-3k.

sleeper_98, I would fall on my/loaner sword before I would drive a Ranger (w/wo sc). Rangers have bad roadholding AND bad handling.
