Dude...........that thing is 2.4L too.

And suposedly the hood comes with the kit. Is that what your hearing? I may just have to wait for a while and toss that bad boy on a forged low compression 402ci stroker with some AFR 225's and a huge cam.


Hey, I sent you a PM

Yeah KB's saying that's the hood.

I'd really consider it if I wasn't looking at buying a Lightning.

I did a little reading about those a few months ago. Might have to get one for the 68 camaro project I'm going to be building. I'll have to wait for some results...otherwise I might go the turbo route. (I was originally thinking magnasun but they're not big enough for my "needs" )

Probably never. Maybe after grad school, but I doubt it. I'd rather get a Lightning or Infinit QX35.

So what's this facination with Lightnings all of the sudden? I mean they are hella-fast.....for a TRUCK (no offense Cory). But they are still like pushing a garage door at speed, and corner like a Radio Flyer. Why would you give up your Vette for that?

I wouldn't be giving it up, I'd be getting one to replace my F150. I figure I'll be driving the truck 75% of the year, so I might as well get one a little more attractive.

Damn 8 grand is a whole lot of money. That may just keep me from trying to go that route. We'll have to see if the gains are worth it.


You got to remember that if you want to increase the boost your gonna have to forge your motor too. That added on to the 8k equals...........holy ****!!
