I really like F150's - someone who lives near me as one, not sure which I like the most between Dodge Rumble Bee's or F150's though

Is that your m8s truck in the picture? If it is then it's not a Lighting, that's an F-150 Harley Davidson edition, the Lighting was never offered in Supercrew (4drs). The Harley has the same drivetrain, just not as fast.

Ill defo be getting one soon though, the value of them are peanuts over there in comparison to here so deffo worth importing one!

Hi mate I've got one, had it over a year now, Know them very well and we've been doing alot of work on them, We offer anything from lowering to a 750rwhp engine build, even factory parts we can supply so any issue with it dont hesitate to call us for advise. Look in Performance ford mag for more info on mine, recently ran 155.5mph in the rain at brunters in mine on PF's Timing gear, 160+mph is the aim for the coming months.

mine is around 430 at the wheels so just over 500hp, this is guess though as we never done a power run,it will be going for a power run soon and we will then fine tune the map along with a little more boost.

main advise I'll give you is to check all the plugs for the grade and tightness.

get the pic up!!

will be doing a santa pod meet up feb time with a few other lightnings so join us?

whats the full spec on yours then if it 500hp? tell me more

Dannys truck certainly does the biz at 2 and a half tonnes......!

Plus he knows how to drive it properly which makes all the difference..
