New Truckin Issue Rocks

You lightning owners would love this issue. i just grabed it out of the mailbox and was pleased to see that it is a Ford tech special. It has a lightning that they swap out superchargers with a Kenne Bell that run 13.2 psi compared to 9.3 stock eaton. 403 hp compared to 348. They also do a pully swap, a throttle body swap, intercooler swap and chip tuning feature and a bunch of other different things. The cool thing is each part or mod that is done is Dynoed seperatly and they show the results and curves. Its also got a huge section on airbaging fords, rebuilding a ford 351 cleveland for street and strip, adding a powerdyne supercharger to non supercharged ford trucks and a bunch of Ford info for the 2004 facelifts that will come around for the trucks and ex vehicles.
Its also got a bad *** article on the Dodge Ram limited edition V8 Ramrod. WhippleCharged, over 350 hp stock, a nice clean custom interior (not the Dodge plain crap), 23" rims, Exhaust, Modified engine guts, a chamelon paint job (you know, the one were it changes colors as your flying by it) and a partrige in a pear tree. I never thought Id say that i saw a nice Dodge but I did. Ohh yeah, and a BEAUTIFUL 2 page spread of the Harley Ford on the inside cover. And Did I say it was a Ford Special. It is.


To anybody at truckin, this is the Best one yet.

If I'm not mistaken, isn't this the same test that MM&FF did on the KB, must possibly reworded and some different things added/deleted in?
