2.3

Well I can confirm 100% that plant shut downs have pushed back my production date. My order went from a 6/14 build week to a 7/5 build week. It is what it is..... I ordered a 2.7 BD 4D with the MIC top. I sold my Ranger today because I could not pass up the money that is being offered right now...

So great to finally see them in real life! And totally lucked out that they had a 2.3L manual BD which is my build (minus the 2 extra doors). The team that runs the event were awesome and let you crawl all over and in the vehicles. The MVG seats were super comfortable and the exterior and...

For those thinking about the 2.3 (including those sorry souls who want a manual with the 2.7 but are left contemplating the four-banger), here are the versions of the 2.3 currently produced by Ford: 280 hp at 5,600 rpm, 310 lb-ft at 3,000 rpm. Application: Ford Explorer, Ford Ranger. 285 hp at...

Hope this graph can help people decide which engine choice to make based on more than just peak horsepower and torque numbers. The data is pulled from a well known EB tuner shop and I used the data from their baseline runs before tuning and modifications. The 2.3L was in a Ranger and the 2.7 was...
