    Very true, Dave. Or I could hang a turbo on it! But I imagine the Ranger trans wouldn't care for that.

    Falcon, the Ranger trans would love it, till you started banging the gears. To me the temptation would be overpowering.

    Put a small turbo on it, you might be surprised. Get another spare trans just in case and enjoy.

    I haven't posted for a bit but I've been on it. I had a couple wiring issues I had to work out that ended up involving taking off the intake and fuel rails and untaping the harness I spent so many hours putting together. But now it's done and I've got power to the O2 sensors and the injectors and it's all back together. Just missed two wires when I was putting the harness together. I also needed some kind of heater and I found this in a Rambler at the boneyard. Bad motor but the core is good and this is about as compact as they come. I was able to make the Taurus blower motor fit with some fabb'd brackets and the shaft just happen to be the right size. Im going to start figuring out how the radiator hoses and clutch line will run tomorrow.
