Post Blown 306 Power in a Ranger

If you have read my post in the blue oval you will realize im not getting a jet ski like I wanted. I am wanting to build a 460 powered late 80's ranger. I have all kinds of info about this swap and I think I can handle it. I can get a good Ranger body that needs a motor for about 400 bucks. I have a wrecked 90' lx 5.0 with a t-5. It is a 86 block bored .030 over and fully worked factory heads(did it to those just to see if I could). I have seen these kits to put a v-8 and t-5 in a ranger but was wondering about adding a blower. Would it be the same result as in a mustang? I want to build a toy just to drive on the weekends and to cruises on sat. night. It would probably make it down the track a couple of times but thats not the priority. Any advice, tech help, opinions.

Another question is amount of room in the ranger front end. I know the radiator sets up under the factory support, does this make any extra room, enough for a vortech?
