Post 2001 Supercharger

This is interesting. I'm sitting here reading Ford's specs on the 2001 Lightning and noticed that they are rating the Supercharged at 8 lbs.

Any thoughts?

What are '99 and '00 Lightning superchargers rated at Jim? 8 psi? I guess my thoughts are: Sure glad they didn't give it more boost or I'd be really pi$$ed.

Killa is correct, just pulled my 2000 brochure and it stipulates boost is 8.0 p.s.i.

I was a slave to the show that we were in. Not much fun to be had this time around.

What's the deal with the new shoe being used on the under-$25.00 Blackjack tables? Continuous shuffle, no break, no win. What a ripoff.

Yeah Vegas got about $60.00 bucks from me. Don't spend it all in one place.

Question

I'm more curious why the s/c now reads "Ford SVT" instead of "Eaton"
