1993-1995 Ford Lightning
Ford introduced the Lightning, a high-performance pickup tuned by the Special Vehicles Team of the company, as a direct response to Chevy’s hot 454 SS (SVT). The SVT team modified Ford’s 5.8-liter small block V-8 inside and out with high-performance components to provide 240 hp and a solid 340 lb-ft of torque instead of dropping into the truck in a larger and heavier engine. The suspension was reduced by 2.5 inches, and the Lightning handled better than its Chevy rival, thanks to new shocks, springs, anti-roll bars, and huge 17-inch tires.
