The HD's and the Lightnings have virtually the same engine. Same displacement, same supercharger. The difference is the HD has a bigger upper supercharger pulley and makes 6psi of boost. The lightnings make 8psi.
From the factory the HD is rated at 340HP and 440ft*lbs I believe. The Lightning has 380HP and 450ft*lbs torque.
I doubt that your boss has a 8lb or 12lb pulley. I don't think a 12lb has ever been made? If he has one pulley up from stock which is a 2lb pulley which would put him at 8psi total, then basically he would make about the same power as a Lightning. I'd estimate 360hp at the wheels.

As far as years go...
2000 - Ext. Cab -NA 5.4 - 260 at the crank
2001 - 4 Dr - Same motor - same power
2002 - Same - S/C 5.4 - 340 at the crank
2003 - Same - Same

He might have meant one up from stock meaning a 6# lower, which typically what they put on the HD's like tuners put 4# pulleys on the L's.
Like stated, hard to tell from what he has. I have seen a bone stock 01-04 Lightning run 13.1 in the 1/4, as well as bone stock 01-04 L's run mid to upper 13's. Every truck is different.
I think some L guys in TALON that have Harley trucks too were runnin in the 14's, but dont quote me on that.
