9.6 to a 8.9

Why he did infact smoke the shit out I was more then happy with my truck. I was not impressed with that lightning at all to be honest with you, The guy had a SCT Tune and had it pullied down and he was running slower then most stock lightnings, That was with his 1.9 60' as well (I did a 2.1). Quite honestly, I think the Dakota looks and sounds better anyways.

However, I'd still rather have the lightning...Maybe.

meh lightnings never really impressed me, while they are very nice trucks (at least I think so, I pretty much own one so i should like it, 1998 Flarside which is basically a lightning w/o the body kit) they wernt as fast as I would have thought they should be for an SVT sport truck.

LOL, comparing a regular Flareside F150 to a Lightning is like comparing a SLO to a SHO and saying they are very similar. Not fast enough? How fast do you need your truck to be?

Didn't the first Lightnings have the 351ci V8?

A 1998 Flareside had the 5.0L. Big difference.

The newer lightnings, now THOSE are badass!

What I ment was looks wise not performance, if you took a slo and put the sho body kit on it, id look like a sho so what i mean is if you took the flareside f-150 and put a lightning body kit on it id look the same, other them maybe a different height in suspension. But really the slo and sho do look the same to the untrained eye so really but to me, yeah totally different car.

When I said height that was supposed to mean the obvious difference in the suspension and like I said im talking about the outside not the engine.
