in this video we put the head that's fresh from the machine shop back on the danger ranger. its a 2.3l ford ranger race truck that we test and tune on his track.
That engine sounds incredible. I am not into racing and dont know a whole lot about cehicles but if I had to guess no way would I say 4 cyl. Love how the mean race engines idle so rough but add a little more fuel and its like poking the dragon.
Man why not the 2.5 they made for those trucks. I ran mustang in a minstock car class when I was 10 on asphalt no fqd by the way the rwd mini stock class but we was allowed to run the 2.5 Ford ranger motor and stroke them out to a 3.0 stroker and turn 11l rpms qe was crazzy fast on 8 inch slicks lol rest of car was stock besides motor and we ran a holly 500. I still got parts for the 2.3 in my shop like racing 510 lift cam custom ground and a few beautiful built heads that pass tech barley and will pick up the truck alot down straight away mine sounded like a monster v8 qith a big lope to it lol I miss that class. They just started this truck class like the truck you working on so I'm throwinge one together right now as well. I currently race pro truck metric clip tube frame out with a arp Toyota tundra body and a 604 crate motor qith 850 cfm vanderly carb. Hey vdl carbs makes racing carbs for those ford motors as well and will custom build you any holly style racing carb best in bussiness uilt all carbs for nascsr teams and he builds every carb to match your motor exactly no matter what motor you run he will hook ya up and get you Goin fast and wake up the motor loke never before
Who's truck is this? or what ever happened with it? you're pretty local to me and I'm just curious. Hoping to get the engine wrapped up in my truck in the next couple days.
