Hey all, just purchased my winter DD and future project in a '94 Ranger 2.3/5 spd from a family member.

I have a few things in mind. My wife and I plan on taking this versus our Mustang on Power Tour 2010 for a few reasons. I'm thinking of swaping the wheels off my Mustang for the Power Tour and sticking some Bogarts on the Mustang permenantly, or at least be able to swap back and forth.

I'll be lowering it, fixing small rust/dent issues and painting it before the weather turns (hopefully) and getting something for wheels for it by spring time. Looking at turbo stuff for this 2.3 seems pretty reasonable while I build the SBF/Turbo for it.

Anywho, projects to finish before I get this thing started. Can't wait, nice place, hope to learn a lot.

Forget the Ranger, tell us more about that Stang!



Looks like you have a pretty nice base to start from with that Ranger though, looks to be in decent shape.

Haha thanks.

The Mustang is a '92 Ex Texas Highway Patrol Car. Stock short block, ported TW heads, ported GT-40 intake, 65mm TB, 24lb injectors, Custom Comp Cam, Tremec, 3.73's 100-250 hit of spray all depending. It's a fun car but needs a few little things done to it to make it real nice.
