2001 Ford Ranger Edge extended cab 2WD with EFI small block (SBF) V8 tuned by Aric at Injected Engineering (conservative 246rwhp/303ft-lbs @ 4700 RPM). Scat 331 stroker kit with forged SRP pistons (9.5:1, ready for boost/nitrous), ARP main studs, ARP head studs, Scat forged rods, and Scat cast crank in a 1992 Mustang 302 block. Twisted Wedge Track Heat aluminum heads, Anderson B25 roller cam, 1.6 roller rockers, custom Torque Monster headers, GT40 intake, 24lb injectors, Lightning MAF, custom true dual side-exit exhaust w/ high-flow cats and magnaflow muffler, big 3-core all aluminum radiator, and a 4R70W automatic transmission with modified valve body plate (shifts firm), 8.8 w/ 3.55 gears and freshly rebuilt cobra kevlar posi and SN95 Mustang rear disk brake conversion. New adjustable rear air shocks and heavy-duty rear springs, new factory engine mounts, new alternator; ball joints, tie rods, and front shocks changed just before the engine swap. Clutch fan keeps the truck running cool, even with the AC on max sitting in rush hour traffic at 95+ degrees.


EFI is a reprogrammed 1999 Ford Explorer factory ECU; I took the time to get the passive anti-theft system (PATS) completely operational using parts out of a 98 Explorer and had a key programmed and custom cut to work with the factory locks. All gauges and lights work as they should. 

Good daily driver with functional heat and AC (best "mod" ever for Atlanta in the summer), power steering, cruise control, a factory in-dash 6-disc changer, ABS, power brakes, new front and rear pads with new rear rotors, and plenty of tread on the tires. The engine has about 7000 miles on it but the body/chassis has around 189,XXX miles (driven 40 miles daily, this will go up). The truck passed emissions with the V8 last year and again in May 2013, and is registered with the state as having a V8 in it; it's not showing any codes on a scan tool and DOES NOT have a check engine light on.  The truck has a few miles on it and the body and interior show some age, but it's a really decent rust-free southern truck.

For reference, in good condition KBB values this truck at over $5000 with the original 3.0L V6 and I have A LOT more than $4500 in parts and tuning into this truck along with a few hundred hours of labor. Injected Engineering in Kennesaw dyno-tuned the fuel injection; they're familiar with this truck and can provide future service, programming, etc... Will also come with several factory Electrical Vacuum and Troubleshooting Manuals (EVTM).

Clean and clear GA title in-hand.  Clean CarFax.  Email me if you'd like specific pictures of something.

Ford EcoBoost successful because of Soviet laser weapons system expert?

Sun, 28 Jul 2013

Mike Kluzner is a man of many talents. Not only is he the software engineer responsible for fuel system diagnostics for Ford globally, he "got his start designing laser weapon systems capable of disabling the navigation systems of enemy satellites" for the former Soviet Union. Quite a résumé, wouldn't you say?
You may be asking yourself the same question that popped into our minds upon reading about Mr. Kluzner: What do laser weapon systems have to do with Ford and its EcoBoost engines? We'll let the man answer himself. "The same process for analyzing key physical relationships works for what we do today in engine combustion, catalyst chemistry and mechanics," says Kluzner. "These are all part of Ford's software engineering expertise." Who are we to argue?
Ford also employs an engineer who previously designed software to detect damage to the heat tiles on the International Space Station, as well as one who's past work involved particle physics, says the automaker in the press release below. David Bell (pictured above right), global boost system controls engineer for Ford, describes the software running EcoBoost as "the secret sauce" that makes the technology work as the driver intends and demands.

Ford Australia pulls the ol' talking car prank

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

Siri from Apple has proven that being able to talk to your technology doesn't always work perfectly. But what if it could eventually go far enough to give a personality to inanimate objects like our cars? Ford took just this path to comedic effect by playing a prank on many unsuspecting Australians, in a new commercial for its EcoSport compact crossover.
The Aussies seem very nonchalant about having a random parked car talk to them, and they seem surprisingly game when it asks them to get in, call a celebrity and tell a joke. (We're guessing there are some hilarious outtakes, too.) Scroll down to watch some folks from Down Under have a conversation with Ford's CUV.

Ford and Chrysler reducing summer plant shutdowns

Wed, 22 May 2013

Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.
Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.
Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.
