Lt1 vs. Supercharged F150? A friend of mine has a 98 Nascar F150, it's like one of 3000 made and they came with the normal 4.6L truck V8 with acouple little things done. For a truck, it's quick as hell off the line. We race all the time and he always gets half a car pull on me then i go flying past him. He's planning on making it a street-racing truck. I tried to get him to get new heads and cam. But for some reason he got a supercharger off a F150 like his, but not a Nascar edition. It's suppose to give 8 pounds of boost. I was wondering how much it is this going to help him with 0 mods. I know yall aren't ford guys but yall know your ****, so i thought i'd ask. Thanks, Cory

Lightning are mid to high 13 and low 14's. He has a 4.6 sohc, those things are peices of crap. He should have spent his money on a sean hyland long block 5.4. Would have owrked alot better and then run a supercharger. the 4.6 are just F*ckin dogs in the truck. their different in the Gt's, different heads, intake everything.

Well he's never sale that truck he loves it too much. He has put Boss 20s on it and lowered it another 2 inchs. So he around has like 2 grand into the looks. And he wants to put the rest into the engine. I'll let him read the comments and maybe it well change his mind. Thanks!
