Well, kind of, but it would be a pretty small muscle, like the one that controls your eyelid

A whopping 1.25 liter and 50hp. My only car restoration. All my other restorations are classic bikes.

Oh, they qualify alright! If I remember correctly the Supercharged Lightning was close to 400hp stock right? and even higher torque numbers - badassss.

I think the Cobra specs were about the same - Beautiful car, you should detail it a little..Ha..

So, what did you do to add 100+ more Hp to each of them?

More pics???

Cobra has most bolt-ons, ported blower,3in Bassani exhaust,JLT intake, SRA, custom tuning.. And a few other things..

Lightning is fully loaded, Built motor, all the goodies.. With a whipple it had on last made around 650hp 765tq to the tires.. That combo is long gone now and I haven't decided what to build for it yet.. Might get a big shot of juice next?

Heres a pic of the cobra freshly waxed, and the L with its running shoes slicks and skinnies...


I love me those SS's by the way SCAT01!

good stuff - glad I opened this up, hope it keeps building...

Thanks everyone - (Staggered set I run is 265/40-18 rear and 235/45-17 front on Coy C-5's)

So, what does the Lighting run in the 1/4 on slicks? That Musttang gets a lot of love huh? Stunning condition man...

5280 - nice stable, love the SRT - very close to buying one at one point in my life, the hood and stance (and procharger) really crank it up a notch...Is the Impala on air?

Thanks man! The Jeep is a lot of fun! I purchased it about 4 years ago bone stock. Now she runs 11.9x's at 9000 DA. Our local track is about 6,000ft above sea level so add a second. It's capable of 10's with some thick air. She sits on coilovers and 22" wheels with a 315 out back. She gets the attention of a lot of Corvette/Mustang/Camaro guys The back of it anyway lol

The Impala sits on full Ride Tech, tucking 18/20" Intro Pentia rims. It's been in the family for over 30 years. Super Chevy cover car a couple years ago.

It's a sickness...and I don't think any amount of cow bell can cure it

Great race with the Mustang - That Jeep is badass.

What did you do, rent the track for for family and friends only ;-) ???

RedBolt - Did the Lightning get in the 9's with the blower set up and on the slicks?

Probably would have needed a few extra hp to dip into the 9's. Best that setup would've done I believe is low 10's. Never made it to the track, only ran on the street..And sold the motor to a customer...
I have ADD when it comes to my combos.. I'm building a sleeved aluminum big bore 5.8L motor for the L right now..
