I wouldnt waste my time w/ a lightening motor... for that price you can throw a nice turbo kit on your car and spank much more than Hondas...

I didn't know Edelbrock made turbos. That's strange.
Me neither..?..

This is what I would do..

1.)Go with a 4.10 or HIGHER gear...you aren't going to lose that much MPH and you prolly won't be racing very long since you'll burst his *** rapidly.

2.)Guarantee the win with a 150 squeeze.

3.) Throw him the finger out the window after you go into second gear....

4.)Ask his GF for a hummer.

5.)Go to sleep happy.

so i get challenged to a race, by this guy that i have been going at it with for the past year and a half. turns out hes going to race me with a 2000 si v-tech and is going to install an edlbrock turbo. thats all i need to hear. i got an '87 5.0, thats completely bone stock exept for a k&n intake filter and flow masters. so i need a big change. i am thinking of swapping out for a lightning engine, seeing as they are 330ci. and 5.4L and uh... o yeah supercharged. and dont know wether to go with a t-5 or t-56 tranny. i dont even know if it will fit together. still dont know if i should go 3:73 or 4:10 in the diff. now i need feed back, i need info, will this application fit or how do i go about fitting a manual trans. on the lightning sc.? because no matter what thats the powerblock i want. ofcourse once i drop in it wont stay stock.
You will drop $20k to do that conversion. If you have the cash, then go for it b/c it would be pretty cool.

On MY budget, I'd just go w/ 4.10's, K&N panel filter and bump your timing. You should be him w/ just that.
