Title: Dads Autox Ranger
Post by: fordguy545 on June 19, 2009, 11:20:43 PM

You guys showed interest in it in another thread so...

This is my dads 2000 ranger that he uses for Autox. Its a former drag truck that the best time out of it was 10.0002 @ 138mph. Truck runs on propane (because we build propane delivery trucks). Engine is a 550ci 460 with trick flow heads, victor intake, custom roller cam and roller rockers, single 4 barrel baseplate with dual propane carbs on it(carbs only flow 425cfm each) and a vortech YSI supercharger making 8psi roughly. He has it corked down for autox though so its only making roughly 600hp instead of 900 or so, lol.

I'm in love. That is badass to the max! I can't believe it, but that 460 doesn't look as crammed in there as you would think. I figured a 302 would take up a huge amount of a real estate in a Ranger...let alone a big block.
