easy. Ill run a lightly modded lightning(even some with pulley swap) and ill run close to them in the 1/4 if I dont win. s197 with bolt ons and DRs or slicks will run low 12s and on a good day with a good driver high 11s.

nah man.. those are the numbers with a 10 psi pulley during my dyno tune... next time i feel like getting a tune ill run the 12 and see what the numbers come out to. i think maybe you misunderstood me... torque isnt everything... ive seen lightning's run 12's here in vegas as well as high 13's. ive never seen a F/I mustang lose to a lightning except a 5.0 and he ran .1x slower.. they are fast trucks.. but how are you going to compare a superchaged lightning to a N/A mustang.

Probably as good as 2002GTAUTOVERT's...........
Anyways...I am built so I am not worried about sprinkling engine parts anymore.

I know with 2 grand you could put some crazy hp and tq numbers in a lightning but how long is that motor gonna hold up?

Before all of the bolt on GTs chime in on this......Full bolt on GT costs what...at least $2,000 in the end at least??? I could take that $2,000 and throw it on the Lightning and you would have a VERY BAD DAY after messing with the Lightning. I love my GT but I know what the Lightning can do.......

For a S197 to run high 11's N/A, you would have to stroke the motor, as well as bolt-ons...dont think a S197 could run 11's with just bolt-ons but low 12's are definitely achievable!

Oh and dont forget gears.
check it: http://www.jpcracing.com/store/produ...oducts_id=1109
Notice the part where it says: "inclusive setup from JPC that has been proven to produce 11-Second ET passes with Sub-1.49 '60' times in the quarter mile."

say that when the track temp is 140 degrees and elevation is around 2,000 feet.
