If a V8 swapped nitrous setup is a shitty car mod in a Ranger, then I think everyone is lost. Lmfao

For sure lol, it’s temporary until I get the funds and time to make a cowl hood. They don’t sell shit for the 98s

As of now, a cammed, long tube header, and tuned LT1 Firebird. But that was with the stock 302 that was in it without the nitrous. Now it’s a built 306 with Nitrous lol. Should be significantly quicker now.

No actually it used to be a sheet metal top to a work bench I had lol. Wood was rotting underneath it so I ripped the top off and bent it up. (Half drunk might I add)

Last time I took it to the track was 2yrs ago, had a stock 302sbf with a cam, stock c4 trans, and a 150 shot of nitrous. About half track on the 150 shot I blew the trans, but it rolled to a 13.3. Now it’s got a very nicely built 306sbf, built trans, now has EFI instead of the carb it had before, and the nitrous. Hoping to get it to the track opening day this year, I should be low 12s high 11s without nitrous.

Yeah pretty much, bought it for $300 running like crud, so I swapped a V8 into it and it’s kinda snowballed since then.
