Your truck has 340 HP. You should be able to take him on without a problem at all. A simple lower pulley swap and a custom tune can easily gain you 40 HP. 60+ HP if you swap out both pulleys and tune it.

Lightning boost pulleys. A Lightning 6lb pulley will add 4lbs to a HD F150. By a tune I mean a hand held tuner (or chip), custom tuned on a dyno.
