How quick is a lightning???

G'day guys,

I am planning on building up my "pickup" as a marketing exercise for my company.
It will be mostly a drag vehicle.

I am curious though, as the lightning isn't sold anymore, I believe my "pickup" is the fastest current Ford pickup.
I would like to know how quick stock lightnings are?
I assume 2003 model ones would be the quickest of the lot?
I don't know a lot about lightnings, I imagine they ran supercharged 2V 5.4's in thier later years though, is this correct?
My vehicle is a naturally aspirated 4V 5.4 (Cobra R motor...) and I am hoping to supercharge it.

Also what is a expectation as a quick lightning (can their be a slow one?), 12s 1/4's?

If you want to have a look at it:
