Just wondered how many of us guys have swapped V8's into multiple Rangers over the years.
I've done 2:
1984 SWB carb'd 302/T5 swap
1986 LWB efi 302/T5 then on to the 545/C6 monster it is now.

Daddy taught me to never force anything, just get a bigger hammer
1957 Ford Ranchero 4x4 with 670 cubic inches 1200 horse power 1100 foot pounds of torque on alcohol injection.
Building 1962 Econoline pickup 4x4 mud racer rear engine 541 cubic inch on alcohol injection.
Does several different combo's in the same truck count? lol... First was an early model .060 over 302 with 289 heads topped with a carb and backed by a c4, then swapped in an AOD, then later to a T5. Converted that engine over to mass air EFI later on. Next engine was a late model roller stock bottom end with ported E7 heads, then added a Kenne Bell at 6 PSI. Pulled that one out and now building a forged bottom end 306 balanced & blueprinted, edelbrock heads, comp xe274hr, with the Kenne Bell at 10 PSI. Next upgrade will more than likely be replacing the T5 with either a TKO or possibly a T56 6 speed.

I don't think I have one on my work computer.. but this is off his page. It makes it alot easier when you have alot of room for other things.
It is a 514 BBF mounted backwards behind the driver, runs to a GM style military t-case (that outputs in the reverse driection as a normal t-case) that is just in under what would be the engine bay then a regualy M37 transfer case in the middle of the truck.
so one BBF, two t-cases, two 5-ton axles, four 66" rice and cane tractor tires.
I will try to see later if I can find more detailed pics.
