Ok start by hitting your head on the table
If that feels ok get alot of money and start spending it in big ways to build a stocker
If all that works enjoy the ride......

To be honest if you can afford it It is the best drag racing out there

See if you can get a letter from Ford to allow you to run a supercharger.

What year? I see a combo rated at 185hp for 91-93 and a 2000 factory rated at 160hp with no engine specs. I wouldn't think the 185hp 4.0 would be a fast combo, but would love to see more V6 trucks out there.Good luck.

NES I believe that to meam no engine specs as none are in the blueprint guide. You will need help from ford to get that done before you start. Looks like if my figuring is close it should make T or U. Is this an overhead cam motor like the 4.0 in the 05 Mustang? Have you had it to the track and got a baseline bone stock ET? Not sure of the bellhousing bolt pattern on these but you may be stuck with the trans that's in it and that shoud be the overdrive version of the old c-3. Check the Ranger web sites to see what the off road guys are using behind these motors. Good luck with it.
