Haven't started building one for the Ranchero yet, but I do have the 390 Block..... I'm thinking a stroker kit with aluminum heads and intake, either Dove or Edelbrock. Never have run a lot of FE motors, so some good advice would be appreciated. Also have the 5 speed, scattershield, flywheel and clutch. The 5-speed is a Doug Nash unit with the Long shifter, heck of a find at a swap meet last winter!!!!
