Ford GT powered Turbo Lightning build

[351 twiceblown]

Try a 05 and up MAF from PMAS they will make 800 to 1000HP in a 41/2 pipe without maxing out.

:gl: I'm not dumb guys, it has a MAF with plenty of range, we just started with it turned down to see how it went.

A LONG time coming. Congrats man!ldtu: Good fuel and some tuning :drool:

Woohoo got my ride finally.

This thing is nasty.

I can't imagine what its will be like turned up.

As is on the steet at a red light it felt like a sub mid 11 sec pass. At all speeds up to 100 the 305 drs were on the edge of blowing off.

Looks like MTs will be in his not so distant future.

Added a converter to the truck, this was before getting it dynoed but I realized there was no picture of Alan's creation here

Made it to the old town meet last weekend, here's a few pictures.

the more we drink, the easier this build got, the more I told people to go 4V :gl:
