I got my Ranger running last summer, but tore it apart to continue body work. I hope to post some pics.

Dynod at 683 HP and about 650 Torque. We shut it down at 6,000 RPM and 1 to 1 on the blower because we were afraid of the stock block. HP still going up at 6,000.
 
That is the sexiest thing I have ever seen. I need to go change by boxers now.
 
Seems like everyone builds cars and Chevrolets. So I built a Ford truck! Its better than a car or a Chev. Been working on this for about 4 years and have another year or two for completion. My son is doing all the body work and can only work on it two days a week. Weekends, Minnesota winters and uninsulated garages make for slow progress.
 
good god! i would eat my buddys chebbies to death with that. whats the 1/4 times?

Thats pretty nasty man. But why risk that much of an investment by running a stock block? That thing os on barrowed time with that much power. You should step up to a man-o-war block or something. just my .02, badass truck though.
 
No time slips yet. Only had it on the street for two weeks last summer. Had some long nights trying to get it ready to go to Car Craft Summer Nationals, which was the goal. That's a friends 240z in the one picture. Only got into it about 3/4 throttle til I get used to it and make sure it goes straight. As for the block, its got a block girdle and my engine guy said it should hold, he was more worried about the crank because of how far the blower pulley is from the main bearing. Good internals so it should be OK.
