The faster someone buys the old drivetrain the faster I'll be able to get the new one together. Someones gotta need it.

 

well maybe i'll go back to the 3.0 and buy it from ya... hah

 

Is that ride height? lol

Just bend some leafs up there.

J/K of course

 

wow, I thought you were putting this this back together, not takin it apart. lol

that crossmember looks wicked in there though



I vote 347 stroker + C6 + 4speed atlas

 

ha
i'll take the t-case

 

SCREW THAT! I'd totally make new bodymounts and bodylift that thing to that height using 4x4x0.250 pieces that have been boxed on the ends. HELL YEAH MOTHER TRUCKER!

 

thats what I was thinking.. there's no need for a harsh ride

 

Ls1.

 

Ya and i'll buy a jeep like every other joe out there.

Nah.

 

I assume you are keeping it Ford?

 

That, I will say. Yes. It will stay ford powered.

 

I'm going with a good old fashion 302.

if not a 460 would be cool haha

 

Whats with the secrecy?

 

maybe a 245?

 

300ci I6?

 

It's not in my possession yet, but once I get everything together and start putting it in the truck I'll let it out of the bag.

 

well worth the last 25 min reading everypost, cant wait to see more pics and what engine your using.......

 

6cyl powerstroke?

 

Turbo 4 banger. Sweet.

 

7.3 powerstroke.

 

^ yeah, but weight might be an issue for what hes using it for heh.

yeah a beefed 302 would be mint

 

dohc 4.6 out of a mach 1. something different. or maybe a 347 stroker. thats what i wish i had money for. i love diesels but there just to heavy for our already nose heavy rangers. 4bt would be awsome but still to heavy.

 

he said ford so the 4bt is out, thats what i was gonna say.

My vote is still a 302.

 

But he is going for originality. Swapping in a 302 is like doing the headlight mod, everyone is doin it!

My guess is a 4.6 DOHC, A stroker motor of some sort, or a 460 with nitro.

 

I'm with Johnbaum. I'm hoping for a 300 I6 (or a 4.9L for you metric fellows). Not going to be the "sex-iest" engine, but I've always thought it would be cool to run one of those in a rig.
