I love the way they did the shifter and the guages. That is first class.

ya u make a good point that is pretty nice it says the nitrous system is "not completely hooked up" though?

I'd take it, I love lightnings. The 05's have 500hp don't they?

 

[YellowLightning]

I dunno. They aren't out yet.

I dunno. They aren't out yet.

And never will be, at least for 05. They are due out as a 2006 model.

Do you have any links on 'em by chance?

No, sorry -- all I have is what little information Ford gave in their SVT PowerLease documentation. No detailed specs.

 

[YellowLightning]

Oh well. Thanks for the info anyway.

Ford wants to be competitive with the 500hp V10 powered Chrysler truck. Why don't you just make your own? Just buy a clean 94 or similar and add your own supercharger. It'll be even faster than the Lightning. Or you could go even older. My '85 has an HO 351, C6 and a 9 inch. I think such trucks are pretty common.

It's not just the motor, but the handling as well. The SVT lightning has been credited by many critics with having excelent handling.
