Big plans for the future. Found a deal on craigslist for a hot rod explorer. Current parts list: Ford Racing crate motor, Crower 15511 cam, Torque Monster headers w/ dual 3 inch and Flowmaster mufflers, port matched Typhoon intake, 77mm mass air, 30lb injectors, MSD ignition, Holley fuel pump, and an Interceptor transmission. Im sure there is plenty more, I haven't started taking things apart at all.
The owner said the heads started leaking and it got a rod knock, so he parked it and it sat for ten years. So the plan is to pull all the good stuff, fix whatever is wrong with the engine and put it in the Ranger.
Of course, this is all after I finish the SAS. Ill probably drive it around for awhile and enjoy it with the stock 5.0 before doing this swap, I don't wanna take out the engine that I just put in
