302 into 85 Ranger 4X4 With C5

Where might I find info as to what I will need to put a 302 into my 85 Ranger 4X4 with a C5?
I am sure I will need a pan and such, Where might I obtain things such as this?

Thanks! I believe I have found exactly what I need on this site.
They reccomend using a C4 instead of a C5, but the C5 ought to be a better trans as it has the hardened input shaft and more clutches, plus it has a lot of the mods I have read about for the C4 already.

If you use the C5 get rid of the torque converter, bellhousing, and valve body in it and replace with C4 converter, bell and valve body check the shaft should be hardened and look at the amount of clutches it has. You may want to go with 5 clutches in both drums. It all depend on how built your motor is going to be. Keep in mind that your C5 was not behind a V8.

the C5's from the BII/Rangers have 3 and 4 clutches in them.You wanna go through the C5 before putting it behind a 302.You wanna add extra clutches to the C5.I have 3 of them.One is behind a 460,302 and a 2.9
