      A bucket of money would be a good start.All you need is a late model small journal block,a 2.5 crank either stock,lightened.You can get these cranks ground with 2in.rod journals for use with 5.7 rods.Wiseco makes a good piston for the 2.5 -5.7 combination.I would recomend a .580 or larger roller cam set up.Race Engineering,Esslinger,Racer Walsh,are a good place to start researching this engine.

        or take your "bucket-o-money" and get the crank offset ground to a Honda 1.88 rod journal size,then get it cryo'ed,get a custom piston and use a 6.125 length connecting rod.
        No matter how hard you try...you cant fix stupid!!!

        If you build it right...it will turn left!!!

              Bo C......... separate subject. Do you have experience modifying 2.0L SOHC Ford cast-iron heads? I.E. bigger valves and a very professional valve job? Gotta road-race team back in VA that is looking to get some serious head work done in a few weeks.
              Thanks, -Dave- [carpda@msn.com]

                If you want to build a stock 2.5 Use the stock rods,order a new set of OEM pistons for a 2.5 ranger motor.Bolt on a race prepped head,go racing.If you want to run with the big dogs,go with the 5.7 rod combo.
