pure crazyness

I just wanted to let everyone know that my friend just took a high performance 460 and dropped it into a 1996 ranger, which was previously untouched by alterations, and in mint condition. I hate to see a waste of a good truck and a great engine, but the two of these dont quite make a perfect pair and i am afraid that he might kill himself in this frankenstien.

I hope he beefed up the frame and suspension. Lets hope he didn't put too big of tires on the back.

he had someone do all the work on it to prep it for the swap, i just think that it was stupid for him to do it though, he has no intention of racing it or anything, he just wanted to be able to say he had a 460 in his ranger. and sorry for no pics, but i dont have a digital camera.

A 460 in a ranger and no intent of racing? That's like, going to the bar and not drinking!

I know I wouldn't go to all the work just for bragging rights. If he kept the stock back tire size that should keep him from getting into too much trouble.
