Is the t56 tranny a rear wheel drive tranny? I used to have an Taurus SHO and was pleased with the performance.
I have installed a Lincoln Mark 8 4.6 in my 79 F100, I still have plenty of work to do. Pictures are in my gallery.
I met a guy from Michigan that installed a GM Northstar engine in his S10 with a 700r4 tranny behind it with a slight mod to the bell housing to accomodate the starter being on the top side of the engine.
Anything is possible if you want to do some work.

I've done the 351W/Ranger, and I wouldn't recommend it for a street driven ranger. It has too much power for the little Ranger chassis. Eventually mine was pretty ***** to the wall, 650 horsepower/590 Ft/Lbs at the rear wheels, but it started pretty close to stock to get the block seasoned.
