trucks L vs ss

did anyone catch the trucks episode where they dynoed the lightning and the ss? i caught it in the middle of the dynoe for the L, its base was 310hp but didnt catch the tq numbers. then they put a new fuel pump in it and dynoed again, but didnt reveal the numbers. the ss was 298hp and 347tq then they put a msd box on it and it made 318hp and 332tq??? those mite be alittle off, i was upset they didnt give the Ls numbers.

The L has a turbo on it now.
You're way behind.
All of the episodes are on YouTube.
Ketchup!

Yeah I seen it and Kevin is hiding the last dyno run of the L so it's more than the 2nd run

Dr.B I believe it is since Kevin closed the laptop on the last dyno run.Looks like there is a big surprise coming.

Yeah, I've been watching it too. I can't wait to see that Lightning stomp that SS. I can't believe that 454 is only making that kind of horsepower, I was for sure thinking it would be pushing at least 400...maybe they're not as good as what I thought, lol.

Only the Gen II came with superchargers, The Gen ones didn't but many were outfitted with a vortex charger
