Alright guys I'm getting ready to tear my ranger back down for my big project. I'm wanting to go turbocharged 347. I'm still not to sure on what stroker kit i'm going to purchase that's where yall are going to help me out at. I also ain't to sure on the type turbo either i'm wanting a pretty good size turbo to push some hp, but my plans is to build my truck where i can drag race it then if i want to get in it and drive the gas mileage wont kill me. I have a c4 in my truck but i was looking at the TCI or PA Performance transmissions to put in my truck. My truck already has a good rear end set up i currently have a 8.8 with 4.11 gears with 31 spline moser axles and a moser full spool and lakewood traction bars. I'm wanting to run a fuel cell in my truck i have a fuel cell already to do this with. I need help guys i'm starting on this now and i would like some pictures if anyone has already done a turbo ranger? Help me out guys, thanks Brandon.

The 4R70W would be the best trans to go with but you need a computer to run it. You wouldn't need to stroke it with a turbo, just forged internals. By the time you stroke it, adding a turbo would put you past the limits of the block (500 hp). I'm guessing about 10 psi is all you would want to push with a stroker kit. Cheaper to go with forged parts...
