Just picked up an 04 Lightning 60K on the miles. Its completely stock. Never had a lightning before so wanted to see who's got em and what are some good mods to get. Not looking to completely redo the engine or anything but if i can get it in the 12's i'd be happy.

My dad has an 03 and i drive it all the time, one thing i dislike is the shifting when you're in it. i think there's a mod that can make the shifting smoother, i suggest you do that. Thing shifts hard.

Havent been riding it that hard, I love the SC whine but havent noticed the hard shifting yet. I was going to wait until I finished up some new owner maintenance before I floored it.

My HD has a shift kit in it and it spins the tires on the 1-2 shift over 1/2 throttle
