Pulleys

In terms of getting pulleys for an '03 Lightning, is an Underdrive kit what I'm looking for? .. I've never upgraded them on any truck I've owned so I'm not too familiar with going about shopping for them.

Troyer told me I couldn't run a underdrive pulley kit with a Lightning set up.

Like Phil stated already, you cannot run an underdrive pulley system for a N/A F-150 on your Lighting, I believe you are looking for something like this

there are several vendors that offer these so decide which vendor is right for you but if you choose rpmoutlet you've been warned to avoid them

Without a tune, should I go with the 4# or 6# ?

You should not go with any pulley without a tune!
You could probably go with a 2# but your still taking a chance without having your tune at least checked.

With a 4# you need a tune and with a 6# you need a tune and an upgraded MAF.

Ah, alright. I see now. I suppose I'll add a tune to my list
