are the 5.8 lightning's supercharged. and what kinda horse power do they put out :burnout:
No they aren't supercharged. around 240 hp and 340 ft·lb of torque. The cool thing about them is the 4.10 rear gear ratio, and the gt40 heads. And there a very low production truck somewhere around 11,500 made for the 93-95 model.
im thing of a 356 lightning engin in the vert thays why im asking
Better buy some sfc's...lol.
No no no! Talk to Eric and Blown306. That is, unless you want to turn the vert into a pretzel wrapped around a driveshaft.
:burnout:
guess my 77 could be considered one:hick:
we its up in the air....as far the frame goes it already has massive sfc.and next im going to build jack rails.also working on a rear shock brace to tie rear togeather as well as one for the front.or maybie ill just build up this 88 5.0 ho ihave laying around
You are missing the one most important sub frame connector. It's called a roof.
The 5.8 Lightnings have a torquie flat tappet cam and run out of breath about 5300... But in a 4700lb vehicle, it's about right... With a 460 intake tube, underdrives and a flow Master cat back system, mine runs fairly strong but is only third quickest of the other vehicles in my stable...
Mine is supposedly #249 of the 5276 mfgd for '93(only red or black avail)... In '94 the figure dropped to 4004 and '95 I believe was just short of 4000... White was added for '94 & '95...
