I know its not a Ranger but I just picked this up today for cheap and going to put it back together for my son to drive.

87 F150 short bed

I might use this engine for it

The origanal 5.0 stock engine

some interesting stuff on that first engine....more info?

Well if you look close enough you will notice that its not a running engine. There is no crank, rods/pistons, cam or anything else in it. Its a .030 351w flat tappet engine with a set of World Windsor SR. heads, Lightning lower intake, Comp cams power box upper and a set of Bassani equal length shorty headers. I was also thinking of getting a 392 stroker kit and a mild cam that will work with the World SR. heads and make a torque monster engine for it but we will see what the budget will allow. I have 6 other engines sitting in the garage that I could use also and the thought of using the 4.6l 32v engine makes me smile but I really want to put it in one of my coupe Mustangs. To many decisions.....LOL.

that type of 'too many decisions' can be a good thing.the 4.6 could be interesting,you don't see them put in the earlier f-series too often.
