Great ASP (Eric)

I wasn't sure what the boost is, and you're right, the Lightning is a 5.4, but I was going by what a good friend of mine who is the service director in a very large Las Vegas Ford dealership has ben telling me. Every Lightning they have sold, (and others) that the owner has gone with the Ford upgrade pulley swap (for increased boost) has thrown the rods out the pan. The bottom can't take it. I know they make awsome power, but the mag's aren't going to tell you the whole story...they never do. They're just trying to sell mag's.

I was just addressing the issue that was brought up about the cross bolt mains being "superior". I was agreeing with the post that disagreed.
No harm, no foul, and thankyou for offering the info. Glad to get your input.
