It's ALIVE!

Rick took RangerSVT to a buddy's exhaust shop this morning and had the O2 bungs put in a newly constructed Y-pipe down to his 2 chamber flow master. We had to haul an F-150 to the shop for a freeze plug blowout in the bellhousing with my Ranger, so he downloaded SVT and I drove it to his house. It was running a little warm on the way there, so once there we figured out he had the cooling fans pushin instead of pullin! Flipped the wires and he decided to break it in! Here's the video! Only 3/4 of it would send from my Iphone due to file length, but we get the idea, IT'S ALIVE with a vengeance!

Congratulations to Rick for finally gettin 'er up and runnin again!
It took a little of a little of and some of Along the way!
Here's to you, you ole grinnin Possum!!

He said something about some 33 swapers right over there after the burnout and I told him "oh NO!"

Nicely done sir. Now what do you plan to do with that 4.0.....nudge nudge.....

 

['95 ranger]

That thing sounds NASTY!

It went into the V8 donor exploder and to the scrap yard for weight, along with the slippin ole tranny and my old bent axle drum brake 8.8 and a couple of tons of scrap metal.

Glad he got it on the road!
Good to see you guys sunday,when are you guys coming to get the 150?

 

[disciplerocks]

Aw bummer.

We might not hear from Rick for a day or 2! When We parted at a friend's house he was grinning so big it looked like he could pull his bottom lip over his head! I swear he looked like the damn Joker! Probably go burn out that complimentary tank of gogo juice I gave him in half the night!

Anybody have an F-cam and a tuner I could borrow?? Lets see, I raced two camaros, a Chevy fullsize, an extreme S10 and a mustang....Beat all but the stang but I did stay with him til the next light...I couldn't stop the whole time and I'm still and and So far I ran about half a tank through, and I'm loving every second of it!! I highly recommend a V8 swap to anyone with a ranger!! I'm thinking of extra boltons to give me some more power...maybe I need to concentrate on getting a low range Tcase first....Hmmm
