The SOHC 4.0 in the Exploders run really good(my cousin has one), it is
not the slow piece of crap found in the Ranger, even though it is about
the same displacement. They will beat a 5.0 (explorer) in a drag race,
but they aren't as good for towing. Honestly I hope ford takes there
time on getting these in the Rangers, they would run REAL good, for
there size.
