Eric we can asume the Lightning isn't stock. What are his mods and what does he "say" it runs. Get me a list of mods and I can give you an idea what he really runs unless you already know. Bottom line here is if he has very many bolt ons he could be in the 12's. Probably not though. I see he doesn't have any traction bars. Without them he won't be able to hook up enough to get much lower than mid/low 13's...

rebuilt because it had something wrong? Or rebuilt because he wanted more power? If its for power, you get owned, because internal engine work generally means your ready to make SERIOUS power hehe.

I believe they were also offered with a 351W or something that was not supercharged.

I raced a Lightning this past Sat night. Come to find out he had the lower pully swap and a few other bolt-ons. He started to pull me through the top of 2nd gear. They usually have bad traction problems.
If you have good traction race him from a dig, otherwise he'll probobly hand it to you from a roll. Do you know your trucks 1/4 mi. trapspeed? BTW, the guy I raced was running 14 psi of boost. I think stock is like 8-10. It's getting harder to find stock Lightnings!
