Default Lightning 11.18 ET

I was very impressed with a lightning running 11.18 in the 1/4.

KB upgrade w/ 18lbs, built bottom end, 8.5 compression ratio, ported heads and cam, stall, and built trans. Simply bad ***.

Just wish i wasnt raised a chevy boy, lol.

ur probly right with that money number, a built short block will run you bout 6-7 grand. Ive seen on other boards someone run as low as a 11.05 on a stock block. 11.18 is screaming for sure. Congrats to who had that time

Probably both at the same time this winter. I'm going to try to run the rest of the season as is, then I'm going to make the truck legal to 8.50s and put the built motor in

Sounds like a plan. Would be great to see a gen 2 L go into the 8s. I hope you get to run JL sometime soon all boost to see just how a stock longblock can hang with that all out drag truck. Congrats once again and keep the numbers goin down
