Im looking at buying an 01 lightning with 40k miles but the guy never had it dynoed after he bought it ao im just wanting a rough estimate with its specific mods. Mods are

Built motor
Magnum power supercharger 14lbs
Comp stage 2 cam
Intake
X pipe/flowmaster catback
stall converter/shift kit

I know its kind of bland, I dont know exactly everything, im going to look at it wednesday and pay for it as long as its as described. Just kind of wondering around what it will put down.

depending on heads and fuel system 450-510 is my guess. Thats not much boost for an MP.

not alot of boost for an MP, my estimate is 440hp/550trq for a stock head/headers. Spin it upwards of 18lbs and will break 500hp. If on 14lbs he may be on stock fuel setup

Since you are on stock heads, and running low boost for the MP... I'll guess about 440 at the whels, and something in the 520-530 area for torque.

I'd guess your combo would be somewhere in the 415-420 range with torque somewhere around 500.

It has a 2.75 upper and 6lb lower, is that about right for around 14lbs? Im still learning when it comes to lightnings. I know just a 2.79 on a cobra is around 14lbs

i run that combo and see 14lbs with better flowing heads...
that combo should be 9ish over stock on a stock motor.

Im thinking it may have headers or be catless, the guy who owns it doesnt know much about it. Everything was done before he bought it.

I would tell him to take it to a dyno and see what the AF ratio looks like before you buy it, unless it has a wideband. With those mods, i can't see it having stock fuel pumps. Even built doesn't mean indestructible.
