I really hate to see this project end. You were building one of the best looking V-8 Rangers I've seen yet!

Hey man, thanks alot! Nothing like a 351 C but it would have been fun... Life goes on.
I'm about to put the Rover aluminum V8 up for sale, can't afford to hang on to it any longer... I already sold the custom steel billet flywheel and custom aluminum bellhousing for it, hate to see it go but I have no choice. I sold off all the running gear out of my 4x4 '85 S-10 Blazer today so now it's just a big empty hole on four wheels... wasn't much fun outside in the freezing weather but I had to. I'm gonna try to find a cheap, running 302/5.0 motor and trans to swap into it so I'll at least have a V8 truck to drive... Wish me luck!

Hangin' in there,
Mike

5.0L motors can be had pretty cheaply. Too bad about not being able to finish the Rover setup. That was a pretty cool setup.
