some of those guys on that lightning forum are ignorant. i dont know about you guys but a stall converter shaved .8 off my 1/8 mile time. seems to me their pretty good at dropping e.t.s LOL. it would be hilarious if those guys would drop the supercharger and try to build an N/A 5.4L. most of them think since its supercharged its FAST

built not bought is the best "defensive motto" we have against them. Not price vs. hp or money we spent vs. money they spent.

They laugh at us for the tq. converters or whatever the hell those guys are talking about, but the fact is, they think they can just pulley down and be faster than everything.

Some are.. but most aren't.. Just like there's a few "outspoken" folks on this site, there's just as many on the Lightning/Harley sites..

The truth is.. we have to be inginuitive, just like you guys.. because, honestly, there's just not a lot of aftermarket parts for these trucks. Outside of companies like JLP, WMS, etc.. no one is really picking up this outdated platform.

BTW, there's a few 400-450hp N/A Cammer 5.4's out there. ;) Granted.. 4 valve heads in stock form flow decently.. but, you guys definitely have the better heads if you're comparing LSx versus 2, 3 or 4 valve Ford modular heads.

im gonna try and make it out, i better not race though, i might get beat by a lightning bolt :(

so how are we doing this? we need some set rules before we start running if we want to see a true "winner" cus if not it will be like "well just cus u have the fastest time slip doesent mean anything", so i see some options.
1 all heads up racing ford vs chevy, the most wins by the light (not time on slip) wins
2 just track racing the most wins with compared time slips wins time at start line does not matter.
3 quickest and fastest time
or all three

other wise this could go on for ever :lol:

i agree if we could have a flag person it would be even better IMO, this means (to me anyway) that time slips dont matter. I will have my camcorder there and try and tape as many as posible and ill have some one else tape when i go to run the D-max

I agree but you wouldn't know if they leave too early. I say IMO let the light start it and who ever gets there first wins. No slips

what do u mean u wont know just curious do they not have a red light or something? now if u had a flag person and if that what ur referring to i would agree its hard to judge but there are some good people at it, look at the dude off pinks the one guys he was wrong with (that i know of) was Quik

NoNO NO NO. we got to have slips. I could care less if they mean nothing! I agree who hits the light first is winner. I am trying to make it and if I do I am SERIOUSLY going to aim for a good improvement on my PB. So I got to have proof for moving up the list!!!:hyper2:
But as far as going by slip thats silly when it comes to grudge racing anyway
