Anyone on here done that swap? LS Chevy into a 2008 Ranger?
Race only, nothing trick.
Firewall?
Headers and any crossmember issues?
Front suspension ideas?
Just want a mid or high 11-second weekend racer.

Thanks!

I did a 351c and later on a 460 in a 91 Ranger. The 460 fit surprisingly well once the heater box is removed.

I like the idea of a Ford Ranger build. They are a good looking truck and I think the market holds many low cost "cores" in good condition. I expect the Ranger will be no more difficult than any typical buildup.

And I realize it off topic, however, I also like the idea of a Colorado/Canyon GM build.

Been done many times I'm sure, Rnagers are dirt cheap 5.3 LS engines a dirt cheap makes for good combo.

Thanks, got some good info to get started.
Want to keep costs low. Footbraker or maybe No Box. Will use Powerglide and a basically stock 5.3.

"Strange-R-Ranger" is in it's infant stages ;-)
