2001 get 380HP according to SVT website

11-08-2000, 08:01 AM

Just checked out the SVT website and they list the HP at 380 instead of 375 and the TQ is still at 450. Here is the link: http://www.svt.ford.com/lightning_specs.asp

It's about time they released the "official" pics and specs. I can't wait to get mine in April.

Supposedly the 2001 is getting 3.73 gears, a larger intercooler, 90 mm MAF, and a less restrictive air box.

I think I'll have to try and place an order for a black '01 ASAP. &lt

I checked in with the SVT salesman when i was at the dealer getting the L checked out.

They are lowering the suspension 2" in the rear and 1 inch in the front

3.73 gears

new wheels

new grille,headlamps,foglamps,tail lamps

less restrictive airbox

i doubt it will have a 90MM MAF,i cant tell you if they are upgrading the intercooler core or not.but that could be the case.

I stand corrected.Saw the printout on what Ford send to the dealership.never said anything about increased MAF

lowering the suspension more than the 99s and 00s or just the regular f150s? I doubt it will be any lower than the 99s and 00s they wont be able to transport it.

In the past havn't they been rated at 10psi boost? I noticed that they got 380 HP on 8psi and if they used to have 10psi I need to find out how to get the extra 2 back.

I also need to find a good head porter and/or see if the Cobra 4 valve heads will work.

The SVT hotline told me that there would be a larger MAF on the 2001. The dealer info is not always correct on SVT products. Call 1-800-Ford-SVT if you would like to research this yourself.

oilwell1415: 99-00 Lightnings were factory rated 8psi as well even though it seems a little underrated (or the stock gauge is wrong) on a lot of them.

The Ford press release said that the MAF was larger. Someone posted a link in here somewhere. I also noticed that Ford is claiming 13.9 in the quarter. Given that they seem to go about 0.5 faster than Ford claims, that shoudl make the 01 a low 13 second truck in stock trim.
