Wouldnt it be cool to take the 6.0 powerstroke and put it in... let's say a ranger.
Once its there, mod the (SNIP) put of it and crank out 400hp and 800tq.

I think that would be one heck of a contender on the track and a really fun daily driver.

I think that would be a really scary daily driver...like strapping a tornado to a washtub.

even better put the 6.0 and torque shift in a 1000-1200 lb alterd chassis with 3.00:1 gears and let the 800ftlb torque work for you,

You can get 400 HP and 800 Torque with less than 2500 bucks and a week's work...no problem there.
