    Who makes the best radiator?

    Who makes the best radiator for a heavily modded Lightning? All I seem to find are those 2 row styles that "are good up to 600 HP". Surely someone has designed or installed a good radiator.... Miz

    Early Lightning intercooler update question.

    I bought a 1999 Lightning in early 2000 when the white ones were being produced. A year or two after that, I got a letter from SVT that made an intercooler update available if I wanted. I had it done, but the local Ford dealer was not too forth coming about just what they did. Does anyone...

    Supercharger with driver adjustable boost

    Greetings: I saw no references to this when doing a search. I was wondering if I could just run the smallest blower pulley and the biggest crankshaft pulley to get maximum boost from the blower. In this case a 210 Whipple that is capable of 30 PSI. Then plumb in a regular Waste gate (like in...
