'01 Lightning

Well, I figured I would start a thread on the L since I've already ordered some stuff for it. The first mod I've installed so far is the oil seperator from LFP....

And some of the other stuff I haven't had time to put on yet.

Drilled and slotted rotors with Hawk ceramic pads....

New tails...

...I wanted to keep the factory look on the tails, but on the toned down side. Not pictured is the Energy Suspension front and rear swaybar kits (bushings and endlinks). Other mods that were already on the truck from the previous owner was a full Belltech suspension drop, full header back exhaust, and new interior with black carpet. I'll keep the thread updated as I install and/or mod everything.

I agree! Porting the blower is a must. Easy and cheap horsepower.

I also have a Metco Idler pulley from my HD and I am still a Metco dealer if you need any parts.

Thanks guys! The blower will be getting ported eventually, but after I get some money saved back, and find a set of Cobra rotors.

Are you talking about the Aux Idler pulley? Do you want single or double bearing?

It's the blower pulley idler relocation kit. It comes with two pulleys and a relocation bracket.
