wow wallstreet look at this giant thread you started.

 

nothing beats a chevy, my street truck will blow away any ford

 

id like to see u chevy boys keep up with my dad SVT F-150 lightning , 390hp stock .those thigs fly.but he has a vemon kit on it so it crank out 492 hp now , and no more govern. climbs to 180 mph like f*ck all, the only other truck i would by would be the dodge hemi SXT they fly to but not quite as fast.

so for me FORD

 

I don't think is SVT is owned by Ford....they take fords and mod them to hell...

Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

yes infact ford does own SVT not many people relise that, and they dont mod them to hell, just a simple supercharger and different body kit

 

stock they aren't that impressive.......because ford has them restricted......like all companies do......there is always room for improvement.......

I saw someone put under drive pulleys on the compressor and the alternator.......and an over drive pulley on the blower..........combined with the venom kit........that thing put out way over 500hp


they are a totaly different truck......but I wouldn't be caught in any truck over 140mph......regardless if it shuts off or not.......

 

74-79 ford f-series were un-breakable especially the ones with the 300 straight 6! but when ford went with the new body style in 80' through now there sh**

 

The newest production Lightnings have 380 hp stock, it is the Cobras that have 390. Also, SVT is Ford's Special Vehicle Team. When you say Venom kit, do you mean nitrous? Oh, and I can guarantee you that your dad's truck does not go 180. A Hemi SXT would not beat a stock Lightning, the Lightning is the fastest production pick-up out right now, but it is going to give up the throne when the Viper-motored SRT-10 comes out. (SWEET) But still, the Lightning is one he11 of a truck, that's for sure.

 

"nothing beats a chevy, my street truck will blow away any ford"

What does it run at the track? What kind of dyno numbers has it put down? If you don't know, I'm calling BS. Stock Lightnings run low 13s, and guys on the FFW circuit are running mid 10s with some work done to them. If you have a truck that fast, you'll have some documentation on it.

"stock they aren't that impressive"

Low 13s isn't that impressive? WTF do you drive? lol
True, they run well into the 12s with a new mass air meter, air filter and exhaust, but any truck that will bust out 13.3s straight off the showroom floor while maintaining it's towing capacity is one bad machine!

Guys, there are Powerstroke deisel trucks and vans running 12s at the World Ford Challenge. I know that some Cummins trucks have done it too, but you just won't see GM oil burners running that fast.

 

White I dont know about that. If Samcoeds' durmax is putting out that much horsepower and torque. I dont see why it couldn't run Low 13' or high 12's. Sure would be nice to see it run.

Thats something you dont see very often, a 3/4 ton pickup smoking Mustangs and Camaro's.
