Ranger with 5.0 302

Some guy wants to race and he's got a 89 ranger with a 5.0 302 off a gran Torino. Guy is claiming 380rwhp but I'm pretty skeptical. What do you guys think?

That's what I'm saying. We'll see if that "380" shows tomorrow at the strip.

380+ RWHP is very possible. However, he's in a truck with a chassis that was originally designed for a 4-cylinder engine. Suspension is key to this truck. If the suspension is stock, he will just light up the tires and you will easily beat him. If the suspension is setup for that much power (and has weight in bed), he will likely beat you. 4WD would benefit him too.

takteq a bit off topic, that has got to be one of the sharpest 2014s I've seen. Nice. I like your stripes. I have similar stripes on the hood, but not the side stripes like you have. I contemplated them once, and then backed off of the idea. Now I'm thinking about it again lol.

any more pics?
