The rear wheel horsepower on a Lightning making it's rated power of 360 hp SAE Net at the flywheel is about 290-300. YOu won't ever see a stock Lightning making 368 rear wheel horsepower, or even close to it.

Vericoms and G-Tech's are great for the money, but they don't have the accuracy of a dyno, of course. Just to give you an example, when Superchips did their chassis dyno pulls, the Lightning made 291 rear wheel horsepower stock, and 316 with the Superchip. With the 4R100 automatic, we can expect to lost 60-70 hp to the drivetrain, so these numbers are very accurate.

Just thought you might like to see some dyno numbers for comparison, and best of luck in everything you do.

I would be interested in seeing the g-force throughout the run, like 15ft, 30ft etc.

Thanks.
