1/8 mile 1/4 mile ET

[306deranged]

Just trying to get an update I see a lot of guys have changed setups, trying to see what has and has not worked for yall. I rarely see any v8 rangers at our local tracks so to hear yalls times is pretty interesting. I will be running a gt40p motor with a c4 8.8 carbed and 100shot on a plate. Times coming soon

1994 ext ranger

mine is a 1994 ext cab ranger. I tried the pro comp heads off ebay and they are junk. my motor got hot and I had to redo the motor. i have custom 1 3/4 headers. I changed to a solid roller .672 lift camshaft and a set of dart pro one heads. the motor made 508 hp. the truck has 3:55 gears with a 28 inch tall tire. 12.57 @101.89 mph was the fastest pass. I'm changing the rear gears to a 4:30 gear now. the fuel pressure reg went out after that pass so im not sure if it would have done better. im hoping the times drop into the mid to low 11s on motor.

 

[306deranged]

that's pretty impressive! Im wondering what my truck would run on 100 shot? I will still have leaf springs flipped but I will have traction bars. 275 et streets on weld wheels

 

[faststang90]

mine has traction bars to and I have 28x12.5 et streets. my mustang dropped about 1 sec in the 1/4 on about a 125 shot.

what else is done to your motor. what intake do you have?

 

[306deranged]

this one is stock, not even a cam until I get a set of aluminum heads. it has a performer dual plane intake. GT40p explorer motor, c4, b&m trans kit

 

[faststang90]

I have always been told not to spray a dual plane intake. I would change to a single plane intake when you do your heads. maybe something like a torker 289

my 84 with a mild 347 with some gt40 heads and a trick flow stage 2 cam, performer rpm with a 650 holley, c4 trans and 373 gear I run 7.55 at 90mph, has full exhaust, tri y headers, x pipe magna flow mufflers

I built my 306, with Eagle crank, .496 comp cam, forged piston, built stock heads, Edelbrock air gap intake, will be shooting 150hp shot on it. Haven't race it yet because still have the FMX transmission and the 7.5 inch rear end in the truck. I hace a built C4 with 2500 stall torq converter and a 8.8 inch rear end to install.

[84FreakRanger]

I'm going to the track tonight to see the my 306 with my stock FMX transmission and stock 7.5 rear end with 3.08 gears will do before I change to my C4 and 8.8 rear end. I will post as soon as get home tonight

Keep in mind it is a stock FMX transmission with no stall converter and 7.5 rear end dog legged with 3.08 gears.

Not a bad base line brotha. Looks like spinning thru the 60 ft?
The stalled c4 n rear end will def help take some time off, looking fwd to the progress on those upgrades. [emoji106]
I'm itchin to get some passes on mine, weather should break soon
