does my 4.0 OHV have the power?
I need to know if my 2000 4.0L OHV 4X4 will be able to handle the 7" of lift and 35" tires..
Keep in mind:
Gibson Cat back dual exhaust
aFe Intake
4.56's
Another ? How much of a difference is there between the 4.0 OHV and the SOHC? I mean, is the OHV really all that much slower?
Oh, and will I be able to beat my dad's 84 F-350 Diesel (dually) with the Banks Turbo?

Yes they are slow as hell. I have one now and have had several of each and the OHV is a Very Small step up from the 3.0. The SOHC is a major leap.

the SOHC ranger is 0-60 mph: 8.1 and 16.3 seconds @ 86 mph according to factory spec and reviews. Granted I was a little surprised it would be that close. I don't know what a ranger does with a 4.0 OHV but if you give me a minute I'll find it. I seem to recall 10 Seconds 0-60 which at the time wasn't bad, but now it is slow.

4.0L V6 SOHC (207 hp @ 5,250 rpm & 238 ft-lbs torque @ 3,000 rpm)
good luck on the CAI. Dynos have shown them to be a waste of money for our trucks. Exhaust may help though. The only thing bolt on/drop in that will really benefit our trucks performance wise is a super charger. 35s will definitely not help.

I feel like an idiot but CAI? Well, Im not really looking to have a street racer lol. Like I said. Just enough power to get through anything I decide to try and drive into, and to pass people that are driving too slow on the highways. Thats all. I should have enough power to do that, right? For my speed fix, i will buy a car. Not sure what i want to get yet...
