Why not drive the 87? It would be much safer at 300hp than your Ranger.
Regardless, you'll need to upgrade the fuel system to EFI specs (new pump, return line, etc.) as well.
As for wiring, I'd find an 87-90 2.3 Mustang harness (or 83-86 Turbo coupe) and start with that. It is much simpler than the 87-88 Harness and would be much easier to hook up. Once you get one of those harnesses, just compare the wiring diagrams for the Ranger and car the harness came out of and it should be pretty simple.

You have to use a file hosting site to upload pics (photobucket, mediafire, etc.).
