My lightning returns after 2 years, it's been molested

Blew it up Jan 08, got it back yesterday!

Few details...

- MMR 900 sb
- Comp stage 2 cams
- Stock heads w/ valve job, surface cleaned, comp springs
- Whipple 2.3 (JDM group buy woot)
- 3.375 upper 8lb lower
- Stock Throttle Body
- Stock Manifolds, no cats, Flowmaster muffler
- JLP Race intercooler tank
- Even flow cooling mod (crossover)
- 60's dual 255 walbros w/ mafia and stock maf.

Dyno results (notoriously low reading dyno also)

18 psi, 16 degrees, 11.5-.7 af

570/670 Uncorrected 545/640 SAE

Track times to come following the arrival of my long bar hardware and a wideband, will be tested on stock suspension (2in shackles), and Nitto Drag Radials.

Truck feels amazing, drives flawless. Seeing 170-180 temps crusing around with the a/c on, iat2's hover between 80-110 normal driving, trans temp is 140-165 warmed up. Very pleased with the truck and the power it made as it's missing a few things most people have with their builds like this (headers, heads, tb) so I have some room to grow / left on the table still.

Pictures...













Camera died as I was on the way to do a few WOT pulls, so all I got was the exhaust, and slight driving. Definitely more interactive videos coming soon.

So for the florida meet coming up, you know what you're getting into this time guys No more sleeper school bus raping everyone but fatjack

Ill be amazed if you hook with 555r's and stock suspension. I had problems with just my 6lb lower.

I cant wait to test my MMR set up. They finally got it running yesterday

Have longbars also, waiting for the hardware to mount them. It hooks from a 40 punch like it used to with my old setup which the dyno is posted also, 2.8 4lb setup. From a dig it's not as easy as it used to be i'll say that, but i'm sure I can cut a 1.8 on the nittos and that should be good for some deeeep 7's.

Congratulations on getting her running again.:congrats:

That is a long time to do without your truck!

Hope it performs beyond your expectations.

Keep us posted...video preferred!

Congrats on getting the beast going, those are some pretty good numbers for a Ford ! Just make sure you leave the School Bus home next time

Bet ya it cant beat the school bus. I wanna see that video

Nice looking truck, but what does that have to do with a srt10 DODGE ram? On a "Viper" Truck Club forum. Glad you finally got it back tho.

When did you get your truck dyno'd. I almost made it up to XXX on Monday to get mine dyno'd.

Congrats on getting your truck back. Looks like some good numbers.

Now if he could just put down some numbers like that on a N/A motor, might have to buy a dodge for that though :marchmellow:

Nice truck... I've ridden in a few lightnings. They are nice trucks. Much softer ride than our beasts. The automatic in a RC is also a benefit.

Two totally different trucks but the L's are nice and much cheaper to mod than a 10. Still happier with my truck though.

Congratulations on getting your truck back. I like that color blue very much.:rock:

Bill.

:rock: Very nice!

Thanks guys!

It got dyno'd monday at XXX actually.

I drove the school bus over to the shop to pick up my truck, did a few races on the way home. I gave the school bus the hit and about quarter throttle I just sat right with it. Did another one and the school bus got the hit, I went WOT and it looked like it threw out it's anchor.
