Default Diesel powered, ALL FORD 05 Ranger

Well this is my first post, and I am almost finished, but figured I would throw this out there. I have an 05 STX that I have swapped a 1000+ hp, (slightly moddified 6.0, (now 6.1) liter powerstroke into. Been working on it for about 2 1/2 years. Back halved, 4link, 100% custom. Here is a link to most of the pictures.

Heres a few of the build. Just thought I would share.

I think I've been following your build over at RF. It's really some freakin' awesome stuff. Can't wait for the T&T vids....Will it be ready for T&T for 2010?

Followed your thread on RPS... Drag racing and all out horsepower have their place in my heart. so do clean professional looking installs. Glad to see you over here.

You know, I just did a headgasket and stud kit job on a 6.0l SuperDumpster.
It was a huge PITA, had to pull the cab, and deal with a bunch of "bright engineer ideas"...

It's gotta suck doin it on a truck half the size! But that is really badass though!

Actually, the problems that cause that has been addressed. My 03 F-250 makes 581 on fuel everyday. Its been tuned that way for 3 years, and about 75000 miles. Also I had to pull the heads on this engine to make some changes, and its a breeze. the entire engine is right in front of you. Nothing to get in the way.

Well the tranny is in, and it was a mother to get in. I know its a shock, but it fought me all the way. Used a motorcycle jack to get it in there. Also ripped out all the old wiring from the ranger tonight.
