Hey Talon... Is this lil' Ranger 2.3L Turbo(T-bird/SVO transplant) powered? From the vid it sounds more of a V-powered mill, but hard to tell exactly. Thanks for the GREAT vid in any case- Subscribed!
It's practically like finding the Holy grail looking for a rust free Ranger similar to that to build. Fords were so bad in the 80s and 90s there all crushed with only picture's and memories to remember them. It's extremely rare to see a probe tempo topaz Taurus or a square escort gt... It's like ford Never made cars in the 80 to 90s. I was looking to buy a square bronco 2 for a awd whipple Windsor build.... Slim pickins
@@brentiaconelli6484 i have an 88 Ranger with the 2.3. Runs really clean. Motor never been torn into. Quality built. I like the Rangers much more than any other small truck.
Great. It’s not fast! We have no idea what it runs in the 1/4. No idea what’s under the hood....nothing. The only thing cool is that it’s an old Ranger!
Brian Reynolds Because only a few people love rangers enough to have fun with them and maintain them, the rest beat them and have them work until they blow something and don't repair them, a ranger's life is a sad and hard life...
I know this guy, he is a awesome machinist and a member of turboranger forum, user name Rangergt www.turborangerforums.com/showthread.php?t=5520 the engine is a duratec 2.3 with Cosworth everything
I have a 2.9 Ranger '88 4x4 for 12 years and a year ago I blew the engine. Block is cracked. Been sitting a year... I was thinking of putting a 4.0 in it .... but I just today seen this 2.3. DAYUM !

Your Ranger has an alignment Issue look at your video and you will see the truck is dog tracking down the strip and it steers to the right when you pull the front wheels off the ground, look at the leaf spring bushings and other related items, string the truck first so you know where your at.
I got new m/t drag radials and developed a huge pull... Unbelievably it took a few weeks to figure out that the new tires... Same size were a 1.5 inch different. It was like driving with a 26.5" and a 28"... Once it was fixed it drove straight as a arrow
My Ford ranger has a 3000 hp 4 banger with 4 twin turbos per cylinder and quad exhaust with quad super chargers with 4 bottles of nos that is a hybrid plug in with a extra 2000 hp and strapped to the bed have 2 jet engines and on top of the cab has a mast and sail that came from a racing sail boat for windy days.
I like the blue masking tape behind the rear tires. Great idea to make the rubber easy to clean off!
Love those Square body Ford Rangers......
And here is the video I needed to encourage myself into working on my '90. Some say I am crazy for wanting this
Damn the 3.0 makes such a big difference
😂😂😂😂
this needs to happen in my life
the danger ranger
sick truck would like to see some more videos
Badass! gotta love a classic ford
Turbo Ranger, the sound of my people

That launch tho!!
That's a mf Ford Ranger..

Beautiful ranger.
in 2 step it sound like ole faithful 2.3...

@@dragonblade7273 If you think the truck in this video has a 2.3L four cylinder, you need to have your head checked.
Well what the crap could y'all give a description about the truck?
Camron Cariker pump gas bro haha
Thats what im saying 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
angry little truck
Would be great to record the wins/loses... times etc...
Awesome lil truck!
Nice little truck. But, it would have been nice to see some of the times?????
the guy is deadly on the tree
That thing is ridiculous tho! Haha!
Nice seeing somebody doing something with an ol square body ranger, is it Ford powered?
Bob Falfa yeah sbf

Brent Iaconelli yeah it’s tough. Took my brother awhile but he picked up a clean 86 ranger to build a few months ago
@@brentiaconelli6484 Thank the "cash for clunkers" program for wrecking all the cool old cars

that's a nice Ranger! what tire size is in the Rear of that thing?
Edited: Ok, I see, but please say so somewhere in the vid or description.
grudge event, clocks are off
Mark Richards so other grudge racers don't know what they're up against. All part of the game. Same reason the build specs aren't disclosed
Small Block Ford Powered
Uh. That Chevy SUV, did something fly off at the end? Lol
whats the setup on the ranger?
Top secret.
4.0 4 banger ported and polished. Roller motor with one big ass turbo.
Is that still leaf spring setup with caltracs or a ladder bar setup. Hard to tell.
At the end they both jumped
Would have loved to have seen just once what time it ran.
Sorry, clocks were off that day
Me gusta la adrenalina motores muy fuertes

Stock power stock motor
Ranger 4.0 standar con turbo
What motors in that im in the process of a swapping my 2.3 97 ranger to a 302 single for now gonna try and run twins later on
Not surprising to me at all. S-10's have been doing this for a long time. Why not Rangers ?

The truck you posted is in Canada, this isn't the same one.
TalonTSi97 Videos oh well, his truck was white at one time, that is why I assumed it was his truck
Is the ranger a 2.3 ?? lol
No its a v8
Yes their a 2.3 range but not that monster
4.0
Lmao
@@dougwillett27 i seen the build its 4 banger that pops wheelys
Dang Daniel
would have been nice if the cut to next shot was not as quick so we could have seen the times/speed..
clocks were off, it was a grudge event
What are you using for rear suspension and weight transfer?
Does anyone know that gas tank is on the ranger
WTF IS THE TIME !?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
What kind of ranger is that?
First on race day
That is not a 2.9.
Do you know the owner of this truck. I live in Atco....building my 89 hoping to get a few pointers
I do not, but head to atco for one of the petey small block grudge events and i am sure you will find him.
@@talontsi97videos thanks cause I have never seen that truck at any other event
Same here to be honest
My husband built the truck.
What’s the time on the races
Grudge race event, clocks are off
Update on the status of the truck 👍 bruh
Haven't seen it in years. Maybe this year at the track

It's not mine
hey talon I was wondering if there's gonna be anymore videos of the jswap eg
It made some changes to the setup and has been battling issues, there will be more videos coming soon though.... trust me!
