My welder wanted me to come out and help him plan the final stages of my build. Got there and he had made a ton of progress. Still no bumper on. She's so naked. The 4.25 to 4 inch coupler fits like a champ. He welded a lip to the intake pipe to help with higher boost levels. This...

Ordered some more pipe for the wastegate and downpipe work, but my guy is cranking. Nothing like blowing 1,000 dollars on payday for the fab guy.. time to bust out the PB&J for the next 2 weeks.. Driver's side all welded up and clamped. ZOMG WHERE TEH F*CK IS THIS GUY'S ABS UNIT!!! THAT...

My fab guy called me to come up and take a look at where he's at so far. He ended up doing a great job so far. He had to change the Intercooler outlet to get what he considered an "acceptable fit", and I have to agree I like what he's thinking. Tomorrow he'll be working on the MAF flange and...

http://nationalhorsepower.com/Dave-Pinks.wmv Here was the run. This time the #3 plug didn't blow up. FlaHP thinks it was a lot faster than the 10.8 from the first race. WAY TO GO GANG!!!

Yea Yeah, I know we have a Video section, but since 80% of this video contains Lightnings, this is where I think it should be, so keep the :wf: posts to yourself :-D Fun Ford Weekend 2008. It was cool getting to meet a few new faces and putting them with the trucks. The Lightnings made a nice...

This is my stocker of my 2003L. 38k on it. Works wonderful. TPS included. I'm going turbo and already have a new TB. Would be great for a polish job! 75.00 SHIPPED anywhere in the U.S. 48

Pair of 100mm Black Billet Idlers. I'm in the middle of a turbo build, so I can't really use these. Bearings are freshly packed. They're gorgeous, but my 4V setup just won't accommodate them. grrr. 80.00 SHIPPED in the U.S. 48

Had a chance to get down to my truck at Screaming01L's shop and finish up the wiring last night. Also got my intake manifold all torqued down. All in all a very productive night. This post is just an update since I started last January :D Running the 2/0 power wire from inside the frame up...

I thought I would post up a few pics of the install. Our trays looked pretty decent as far as fitment went, so we thought it would be no problem knocking out 2 on Monday night. HAHAHAHAHAH!!! YEAH RIGHT! In defense of RuSlow, our trays lined up great. The only catch is that Screaming01L has a...

Yes, Yes.. another picture thread from me to keep me motivated to finish this thing. It took over a week to get it done, thanks to JEG's sending me the wrong AN hose size (10 instead of 8) TWICE. On the 3rd order I demanded they Next Day Air it, and it came. The parts.. The results...

Preface: BIG Thanks to SWThomas for the killer write-up a couple of weeks back. It gave me the motivation to do this mod. Of course, after starting I realized the instructions weren't going to work for me, but he got the ball rolling, and I had to finish it somehow :D Screaming01L and I...

Too bad it's not my truck :( Just wanted to congratulate Her2001 (aka FlaHP) for the killer run last night. Just Nittos and a Heaton got him an 11 second pass. a 1.70 60' is something I'd kill for on street tires. Here's the vid, along with 2 other CRAZY Turbo Mod-motored Mustangs from...

I sure hope so, because I thought White paint might look funny :) My new job has me swamped and my pace has slowed on the Lightning a tad, but I'm getting pumped up again. I did manage to drive down last night to Dave's (Screaming01L) and get a few hours in. If you remember, the 1200° Ceramic...

I know, I know. No one wants to see a post every time some chump buys more crap for his L. Well suck it up people, because I'm trying to stay motivated so I can finish this thing! :banana: I ordered these yesterday morning from D'Agostino Racing and they just showed up at lunch. Now THAT is...

**SOLD** Going turbo, so no need for this. 6 Pound interchangeable ring and I also have the hub, so you can simply buy rings to change pulley sizes. I am also including a Gates Greenstripe belt for the 6# setup. 80 bux SHIPPED Paypal add 3%. Thanks guys!

**SOLD Hi Gang. I thought I was going to get to keep this for my new turbo build, but it's not going to work. I have an SS Bassani Exhaust and the Bassani midpipes w/ high-flow cats. In my opinion, this combo has the best sound of anything I've heard. I'm going to offer the entire setup for a...

Had a little fun last night trying to get Screaming01L's Bassani R installed. After copious amounts of liquid courage from Wing House, we trekked back to his shop and went for the final push. This was his second set of collectors, since the 1st batch didn't line up. Well we MADE the 2nd set line...

I've been rolling with the "27 dollar grill mod" for a while, and thought it was time for a change. I took pics along the way in case anyone wants to try it. It's a lot more subtle than the chrome accent molding, yet still shows the lower valence off IMO. Anyways onto the pics.. First, remove...

I'm so fed up with trying to find a set for my built Navigator engine. I really don't want to shell out 1200 bux for the Sullivan Upper and Fuel Rail combo. I have twin 255's and 60# injectors. You guys think the stock rails will hold a little under 700 Horse? Just looking for feedback...

Still trying to finsih my turbo build. Having to buy a beater now so everything has to go! Stock Blower w/ 38k on it. Never ported: 250.00 + Shipping REM Carbon Fiber Intake Tube (100% real CF): 150.00 shipped Autometer Cobalt Boost Gauge with MAP sensor and line: 110.00 Shipped 6# LFP...

Well after waiting 3 months for my turbo from forcedinductions.com and Turbonetics, I got fed up and demanded a refund. Jose at forcedinductions.com took care of me and I got my money back. It was NOT his fault. I spoke with Turbonetcis directly and they are backordered on thrust bearings...

It's Lightning related. I came here because I "think" it's ok to post opinions here, vs...oh..I don't know...NLOC. Someone posted saying he was quoted 10k for a JLP build and tranny, and wanted OPINIONS and maybe the name of someone else that does engines. The Original Poster is in FLorida...

I have no clue if the vote thing will work, so which one fellas, I'm torn. Here is what I got for my new build.. Option 1: Option 2: Already have the black paint and am doing black Valve covers as well on the new engine. I'd like to start sanding, painting tonight. Poll...

Mods ar 6# lower, SCT 2800 MAF, LFP bars, E-Fan, FTVB, PSP fast air..you know, the bolt-ons. Truck has 36k, and a fresh set of Motocraft Coppers at .032 Anyway, it was 43 degrees out last night (Florida) so I figured this would be the coldest I'd see to flog my L and see if my tune is still ok...

OK, I thought last night would get me there. This was my 1st time launching with the 555DR's. Lowered them to 25psi 47 degrees F out there. Here's my slip. Is it my 60' time that's keeping me out? I admit a 1.886 is craptacular, but I figurted a 1.8 60' would get me into the 12's. I...
