Big HP increase planned for the Gen 1 Lightning

Look at the part that showed up on my doorstep today.

Its a Master Power T70







I dont know how many of you have heard of Pickrel Performance, but Dave (Icepick) the owner has been selling cold air tubes and exhaust systems to Gen 1 Lightning owners for a few years now.
Dave is planning on marketing the hot and cold pipes and a complete exhaust system for a Gen 1 with either non-intercooled or intercooled setup.

He is still in the process of of tooling up the tubing right now, but hopfully it wont be much longer because I am the first on his list for the Intercooled Turbo setup

Here are some pics of Daves truck to give you an idea of the quality of his work.
btw: Its a 408 stroker with a blow-thru carb setup







This last picture is of a race setup that uses no power steering and no air conditioning, but is very similar to what he will be building for me.

Eric looking sweet can't wait to see it on the truck. Just think you get that on the gen 1 and see the power then you'll want to do the gen 3
