I met a guy who lives in the apt complex across the street from mine who has a lightning. He as a KB that was putting out around 500rwhp, but he had it detuned a little. It sounds f**kin' mean! I really like the Lightnings, but I don't like that they were all autos.

since when does a 400 HP truck beat a 350 hp fbody??????

i got a guy that is putting down right above 500.. its a 5.3 vortech truck.. kinda.. hes really got an ls3, cam, stall, full exhaust.. not sure on heads...

he was running 8.2.. i was running 8.4... im not ******* on his truck or anyone else... obviously.. cause hes beating me. but for the next month.. im stock..

anyways.. it takes 450+ hp on a truck to get a stock fbody.. in my experience........

Be careful of the L from a dig, especially if they have decent tires.
