If you're looking to tune your Ranger for speed, the Blue Oval has given you a heck of a starting point. Check out how similar it is to the RS motor here.

I guess I'm the only one that would notice how deep the crankshaft sits in the engine. At first I thought they were using a bed plate but from the pic, it appears they aren't. Noting they're using balance shafts, I'd agree with the article that Ford is apparently building a torque monster. Should be interesting to see just how much this little engine can. Certainly come a long way since the old Model T 4 bangers.
FWIW, when I was a kid trying to eat, I worked for an old man drilling water wells. The old rig used a pounder type drill and baler. The engine used, a Model T 4 banger complete with hand crank start. Thing run like a fine swiss watch.
