Anyone like SVT Lightnings? (Vid)

My buddy is getting rid of his supercharger...to go turbo. He did one last video before he tears everything down.

YouTube - Ford SVT Lightning with whipple 3.4

He says his burnout marks are 150 feet long...you judge.

Damn, can he make a donation to my bank account? I wouldnt know what to do with 630 rwhp, let alone want to scrap a perfectly good setup just for giggles.

Sweet baby jezus that was NICE! Can't wait to see it Turb'd though!

He'll make crazy power, but I've got a feeling he's going to miss than instant hit of torque....expecially with a heavy assed vehicle like a Lightning.

Those trucks turboed are just sick. He never made peak power and the blower was never run to what it should have been. 17psi was not enough for the the whipple. Now he has a fuel system and the turbo kit presented itself. he will come out dead even. well, he'll be making awhole lot more.

Yes and no, he can't get traction under 60mph. So it doesn't matter and the stall he has in his converter will be perfect. Should be good for well over 700 on a safe tune.

I used to eat these up in my lt1 firebird....Not because it was faster, but MOST people don't know how to drive them!

there was a guy around here, built motor stock cams and a GT42 76mm and that truck made 630 on 15 psi, i think it made over 700 on more boost and good gas

That's not to bad. Those stock cams aren't helping his cause to much. Although they aren't to bad. Another guy I know makes 717 at 17 psi, but has 4 valve heads. These trucks aren't anything to mess with.
