Its been a long time since I have researched this but I think there is a big problem with steering. Its just alot of work and that is why not many people do it.

If you can do it, then do it. I would love to see a 800HP ranger

You do realize all the custom work that is involved, don't you? For all that work you could have a turbo/SC'd 302, 331/347 or 351, 408, etc. and make the same, if not more power with less engine weight and achieve mileage to which you can daily drive this "project".

I'm sorry but I seriously think you haven't a clue what you're talking about. Unless you're just trying to cause an uproar to seek attention or what, but judging by the knowledge you have displayed about everything in this thread, I seriously doubt you'll finish a swap (to a respectable level) if you even start it.

I'll be the one laughing my *** off when you're selling your immobile half finished project because you bit off more than you could chew by trying to be unique.

Bawhahahahahaha
Man Your right though, I am a twit.

This is fun, I didn't realize that you would get your panties in a knot so quickly

But seriosly, I am not knocking what you are doing, I just want pictures. There have been loads of guys on here claiming that they are going to do this and that. Look at the guy with the so called rubberized interior. Complete BS. Show me pics, and I will believe you. I didn't say it can't be done, because it has. I am just doubting your ability.

Honestly dont give a rats *** about your ranger. If I wanted to look at one, I'd poke my head out of my window and look at my beauty.

But what I do want is some pics of this blown 460 that you have been talking about. What are the specs on it?

Well I personally know of two "played out" 5.0's that would walk your 460. I love how no one can give props to some one for moding a vehicle. If some one wants to put a 5.0 in their truck let them. If you don't like it keep it to your self and put your 460 or whatever you want into your truck.

This kids aggervaiting me, I personally have done 2 302 swaps and they are the best motor for our application, now me being a ford tech and going through ford program I know them in and out. Ford has some good motors, the 460 is a great one, But the 302 will be able to be built better and work better in a ranger.

So, Chillmiller sit your a$$ down, stop typing like a 14 year old girl on aim, do some research and use soem effing common sense.

OR

Well apparently I can read if I could respond to you. Someone needs to do some research, Come on, yo bought you truck thinking it had 150 on it and turned out to be 200 something. Anybody with common sense or knowledge of vehicles would notice somethign like that from the condition or the way it drove down the road. Or atleast ran a carfax before they bought it.

Pics or its worthless to me.

This is how I see it.

People who know what they are doing DO IT

People who dont. act like they do and just make random threads with lots of *** and S*** and F** yous I am smarter then you.


Please prove me wrong and build a Bad **** ranger....but I dont think you will get much respect for how you act

its only maybe "played out" in old gens, there is hardly any 5.0s in 98+. yes If I had a 92, I would throw a bigass motor in because its old, can find room easier etc. the new trucks this just works better and under a decent timeframe.
