In other words....it depends on how much money you are willing to spend. Im sure you could build a 10 second 4.2.

Assuming you are talking about a 1/4 mile track, I don't think you have to worry about a governor. If you reach 99 mph, you're waay past the timing lights and need to stop before you leave the track. A stock Lightning will barely reach 99 in the 1/4, much less a F-150 with 4.2.
