Very well built. I would love to do all the engine work you did. Ford should have made the 5.0L a option for the ranger from the begining. Image that the Ford Ranger SVT! Now all you need are a couple of Dana 60's and your ready to hit the trails.

Nice truck, love the V8. How hard was it to swap in the V8. Can it be done with a manual transmission. Not to woried about the supercharger but I wouldn't mind swapping a V8 into mine someday.
