Im guessing your racing class 7 to have the need to stay under 4.5L. A lot of rangers in that class get... dare I say....a GM 4.3L. You can get about 300-325 HP out of one of those with the previously mentioned mods. You could also post your question in the forum on www.race-dezert.com, the folks over there deal with that stuff all the time.

yea we kind of thought about a 4.3 but i think if you use a ford truck it hast to ha a ford motor but we might be on to some thing. we found a web sught that make ssome pretty extrem 4.2s so were gonna look into that because as i am sure we all agree chevy is crap

Good luck! Keep us updated, get some pics if you can.

And I don't agree, every other vehicle I own is GM product :-P.

What do you mean by "extreme 4.2Ls?" How extreme are they?

Rangerpilot If You Look At Super Six Motorsports, You Will See Some Pretty Impresive Ford V-6"s. The Factory Ford Race Teams At Baja Use Ford Engines In All The Class"es They Run, Including Class 7, And They Domonate More Times Than Not. Robbie Gordon Use To Drive For The Ford Rough Rider Team, And Did Really Well!!!!!!!!!
