351w ranger

Well i have been wanting to do this build for a good little bit now. I just picked up A 96 ford ranger x cab step side black splash . the motor will be a ford 351w out of my old 95 ford bronco. So far i have yanked the motor and trans from the ranger. Got the 351w torn down. And hopefully i can get it back from the machine shop soon. today i got my fuel cell mounted. and tomorrow i will start to rip out the old wiring harness and start to rewire it.

Motor specs
351w roller motor with .030 over forged pistons.
stock crank and eagle I-beam rods.
holley 750 carb
Msd billet dis
Msd street streep ignition box
Edelbrok air gap intake
Ford GT40 heads

EZ wiring wire harness
think i may change my mind and go with a c4 instead of a t5
8.8 rear
oh and just a little shot to it too lol

Be careful with yanking wires.I got a windsor in my 86 ranger and I still needed to use some of them.

Yes i have 2. I had another smaller gauge in there and it didn't look good. So i used that as a filler for the panel. I think it looks good. My goal with this truck is to take it to the track and get kicked off for running to fast with out a cage lol.
