so curious, when are we gonna hear about someone dumping a ungodly insane amount of money into swapping the new 5.0 from the 2011 mustang??? i mean if it negotiates the new gt's to 12's i can only imagine one in a ranger LOL....
 
Those new GT's pry weigh about the same as a 3rd gen ranger....but for the amount of money, time, cutting, welding, fabricatating, etc etc you could buy and rebuild a good carbed 351W and go faster :)

later,
Dustin
 
i don't think you'd have too much luck without doing an insane amount of cutting... the new 5.0 is nearly as wide as a 460 just to give you an idea but i would love to see someone give it a try...
 
they put a lot of mustang parts in a 9? madza truck on tv show trucks. It had a modular v-8 then went with mustang engine and complete rear end.
