Building up of a Ford Ranger??

Back Seat Driver · 01-30-2002, 08:28 PM

Well a while ago i had the thought of building up a 80's Ford Ranger. I would pick a 302 engine for the transplant and a 9" rear end, and 410-456 gears. And to keep the Power planted to the ground a set Of ET STREETS.

I was wondering how that would work or if it was a waste of money and time

I appreciate your help.

I know of many people putting in the 5.0 in ranger. Particularly i know a guys who has a '86 ranger. 8 in lift and 1 in body lift. The truck is emaclate, sounds awsome, and has some power to back it up. !!! Go for it!!

the thing is i am only 15 right now.. i have would have to wait about 2 years. 2 years could be the money saving years. PLUS Old rangers are cheap to buy and a 302 engine would be easy to find around this area.

Thanx for the Help .

How about a Ranger with a Supercharged '95 Cobra 5.0 in it, so clean, you would swear it was factory?
