I could have said "how do you make a Ranger a full size pickup truck"
That would be a pre-1982 Ranger when it was an F100/F150 package. I had a 72 Ranger as my first pickup. It was a 3-on-the-tree basic truck with a limited slip 3:73 rear end and 302. When the original 302 sent a piston through the oil pan I dropped a '72 T-bird 351 Windsor adding a Weiand intake, Holly 650, and Hooker Headers that made that truck move. The rear end died not long after and I put a 4:10 posi in it. It would do 118 in a 1/4 mile. It actually topped out at 118 about 2 car lengths before I hit the the end of the quarter mile.
I sold that truck to a guy who put the drive train in a 69 Cougar and junked the truck.
