Who is really using their bronco to race or pull tractors anyway? If you were looking to do either, you probably should have bought an f 250 with a diesel engine. They have a lot more ground clearance stock than a bronco does anyway. My '83 bronc has a bad *** tow hitch on it, but I wouldn't use it for more than towing a 10' john boat. The wheel base isn't good for it. For hunting/fishing trips, driving on the beach or old forestry service access roads, and picking up house maintenance items the bronco works just fine and gets ok gas mileage at stock height with 31's, a 302 and a c6. A properly tuned 4bbl carb works just as good as fuel injection, unless you're trying to climb Pike's Peak, but again you have the wrong vehicle for that. BTW, I still believe the 300-6 is the best engine ford ever made. You can run em 300k and only change the oil filter periodically if you wanted to.
