with the right suspension work and wheel/tire combo a 5.0 ranger should have you deep in the 12's at least. i know a guy with a stock 5.0 hatch, nothing but exhaust, cobra intake and cold air who does 12.96 but its got a real nice suspension setup and he does it on drag radials.

It doesnt take alot of suspension work to get a high 12 second mustang to hook with slicks. I would think 4 cyl springs up front would be plenty..
That hatch must be stripped, and the guy must be a hell of a driver...

I know the 5.0 stangs have alot of potential. It doesnt cost a lot to build a mid 12 second stang.
