Not sure if I got killed or not...
Was out shopping before Christmas a couple of weeks back and look in my rear view and see a newer Lightning. We're on a residential street, but I played with him by punching the gas and launching hard up to the car in front of me. After that... the bait was hooked. We were stuck in traffic and this dude is on my ass the entire time... a little annoying b/c we're not racing.... at this point he's just tail-gating the fuck outta me. So anyway... we turn a corner and I'm not paying attention to him b/c like I said we're still in some traffic. I make my way around the corner and just drive normal. Well, he PUNCHES it around the corner and swerves into the oncoming traffic lane (which was clear) and passes me like I was standing still. He swerves back into my lane in front of me. I was thinking this prick needs to be taught a lesson. He makes a left turn down a clear road and I'm on his tail now and we both punch it. He's in front I'm right behind (I notice this HUGE decal across his rear window "Custom Chips") So he's got some added juice. I'm gaining on him slowly, so now it's my turn to tempt fate and swerve into the other lane to pass him. I'm creeping up on him but it's pretty even... I had to let off b/c we were getting close to an intersection. Must've been a built lightning with smaller pulley's running more boost... at least that's what I want to think. Had this been on a rural highway I wonder who would've won.

tested @ 0.28 in 4.06 bore
Intake Lift Exh Exh (w/ headers)
71.3cfm .100 54.6 cfm 55.8 cfm
141.8 .200 106.1 109.3
203.5 .300 143.1 150.2
238.1 .400 165.8 177.3
262.9 .500 180.4 199.0
277.1 .600 196.9 221.7
284.0 .700 200.9 227.7
For those of you who know the #'s of AFR's 195cc SBC LT4 cylinder heads with the competition package these #'s are practically dead on. Also, the AFR heads are using 2.02 intake and 1.6 exhaust. I'm still using stock valves 2.00 Int & 1.56 exh and getting those flow numbers. So like I said, using the 305 is a waste of good cylinder heads. I know... I know... shot me for not doing my home work.... My next set up is gonna be killer...

I've raced a few Lightning's and I'll tell ya, they can keep up... I've dloaded almost every vid online of them racing Fbodies and they win everytime! I guess if I spent $45,000 on something like that, it should win!

thanks man... disposable income is great! I'm thinking in the neighborhood of 550 rwhp and about as much torque w/ 8lbs of boost. I've heard a few people saying they are making a little over 400 rwhp with just a naturally aspirated 383. Then add 50-60% more with the procharger and after parasitic power loss thru the drive train I'm thinking I'll be in the 550 rwhp range.

i know someone with a 01 ligtning that ran a 14.16 twice, auto with exhaust intake computer they are high HP, but they weigh over 5000lbs or pretty close to that it'd be a good match for our cars, as for the later year lightnings idk if there is much of a diff.
