Before I bought my current jeep I had a torch red 2003 SVT Cobra. It was puting down 465 hp and matching tq to the rear wheels with some simple bolt ons. I loved that mustang but I sold it for something even funner (my jeep).

Thats a nice website. The website I'd frequent alot was called SVTPerformance They have it organized into different groups including the Lightnings. Its been a few years since I've posted there but you can still find my dyno sheets postings... my userid on there was the same (ygohome)

Building a road race 97gt- tossing in a hand built 6L 4 valve fr500 motor all aluminum thn tossing a 3.4 whipple on it. It will put down 1xxx at the rear wheels full boost!

I almost bought a lightning but it only has 2 doors and no towing so I picked up a dodge ram srt-10 with the four door 500 horse power and 8,000# towing capacity
I can take my wife and kid and still haul my quads to the dunes

You know the Lightnings have a 5000lb towing capacity, right?? ....not to mention they are faster than the Srt's, LOL!! I tow my bikes with my L.

no I didnt know that you can tow with the lighting, As far as I new they didnt have a towing capacity.
the srt 10 has a 8,000# towing capacity and the only time I have seen a lighting beat the srt is if he did a pulley change and only then did I see the lighting give the srt a good run.

Just so you know I really dont have a ram srt-10 I was only messing around on the post just to see the feedback
I have been thinking of buying one so I can tow my jeep to moab or the rubicon or even the hammers
and still have a fast truck

I also have to have the quadcab I need a back seat for my little girl

I don't have a SVT, but I do have a 03 Mach 1.

L's are not faster unless they are modded. not in the 1/4 or in the top end.
