First Production year of the new Lightnings?

Boosted50 · 09-10-2002, 08:39 PM

As the title says, what is the first production year of the newer Lightnings? While we are talking about lightnings, how do the older ones fair on the 1/4 mile?

1999 was the first year for them. The 99's had 360hp and I believe the 00's or 01's got a bump to 380hp.

Check out the message boards www.f150online.com or www.nloc.net for information on lightnings, really good info there..

A bone stock 01 or 02 lightning will run mid 13's with decent traction... Throw about $600-700 worth of mods at it and it will run high 12's with traction. It all comes down to 60' times in a lightning....

Mine has run a best of 12.35@110.5...
