1/8

[TheRebel]

First time ever to run my bone stock 03 lightning. The only thing done is the boost bypass mod. Stock worn out rear tires and all.
60' 2.106
330' 5.877
594' 8.396
1/8 ET 8.955
1/8 MPH 80.37
Best part is I was running a Chevy SS with and upgraded Magnuson TVS super charger running about 6 lbs of boost and beat him every time. Only by about .044 though.

These trucks are mean in the 1/8. I'm gonna guess and say you spun pretty bad. Still good times though.

 

[TheRebel]

Yes, first mod is going to be drag radials. My best time was from launching at idle. Anything above that and it spun to much. Still spun when leaving from idle.

Congrats on the new to you Lightning and let the modding begin! :thumbsup:

I would get some t-bars and a DS loop to go with them. Then get some adj. front and rear shocks. You will be amazed at the time you will shave off with improved 60' times. After that, a tune if you want to leave the stock pulleys or pulley up and tune.

My plans are drag radials first, Punisher valve body second, ported eaton, TB, plenum, and lower intake third (NGK TR6s while the blower is off), CAI fourth, lower 6lb pulley and dyno tune (MAF if needed) fiifth, finally possibly killer chiller. It will be awhile before I can afford to do all of this. I'll probably need the traction bars before it is all said and done. I'd also like to get a rear roll pan, different tonneau cover and lower it a little. It has belltech rear shackles on it now but I think it needs to go a little lower.

Thanks, now I want to hit low 8's in the 1/8. Of course then it will be 7's. This is addictive. Drugs would probably be cheaper but not as much fun.

Not bad at all. Get some Metco traction bars and a set of DRs and those 60 foot times will get much better.

Shocks? what kind of shocks should i get will they make a big deal ?

QA-1's up front and Strange Mustang shock's on the rear if you are lowered more than 2"'s in the rear you'll need shock extenders. They will help with weight transfer and your 60' times.
