I4 2.3L. We have two turbo coupe thunderbirds. My dad said if i wanted to spend about 1k on rebuilding the 1988 turbo coupe engine he will let me drop it in my 94 ranger. I been looking on other forums they say they drop right in and haul ass. What do you guys think? My dad is pushing 300hp with the engine in the turbo coupe as it sits.</p>

<p dir="auto">No, they made a race version of the raptor.  The 6.2L is old news - been planned for the truck since it was released.  Matter of fact, the 6.2L is going to make its way into the 2011 F150s as well.  Doesn't make them a race truck.</p>

<p dir="auto">yeah thats what i thought this guy said that they made a street legal version of the racing raptor with 411hp same engine though <a href="http://www.vodcars.com/fastlanedaily/episode/fld_20091104" rel="nofollow ugc">http://www.vodcars.com/fastlanedaily/episode/fld_20091104</a></p>
<p dir="auto">yeah the raptor is a f-150 i knew they were gonna put a 6.2L in the 2011 raptor f-150s... they say its the street legal version of the racing raptor and its got 411hp but i could be wrong</p>
