    Difference between an 01 and 04 L ?

    I know the difference between an the 99/00 L's and the 01 L but (ie, taillights, maf, spark plug thread issue, 3.73's, Bilsteins ) were there any changes/differences between an 01 and an 02, 03 or 04 ? Going to be buying another L soon. Thanks. P.S. Hi Larry. I trust all is well.

    Shocks-softer ride

    My L has a very rough ride with the Bilsteins, stock springs and drop shackles. I've lowered tire pressure but didn't really help. Any suggestions on shocks besides Bilsteins ? Anybody using Edelbrock shocks ? Thanks.

    upgrade to 4lber ?

    Before I install my new 4lb lower pulley I was hoping I could get some feeback. I've been seriously considering returning the 4lb pulley and just work within the stock boost paramaters. Am I asking for problems ? Is the difference in power worth the cost and the rick of over spinning the blower...

    exhaust noise

    Running dual magnaflow straight through mufflers with 3" pipe and I get " hissing " noise that starts about 4000 rpm ? Anyone know what it is ? Another member made mention to a similar noise months back. His description was " sounds like an air hose in a 55 galloon drum ". Please help ! Thanks

    Flex-a-lite electric fan

    Had a flex-a-lite #270 " monster " dual electric fan installed on my L yesterday. Installation took about three hours. There is small but noticable increase in bottom end power. Maybe the best thing is the elimination of that nasty sounding fan clutch ! Cooling appears to be better than before...

    Can't believe it but from a rolling start I got pulled by about a car length this morning by a porsche boxter. I had traction and everything just plain got beat. Backed off at about 80 mph and accepted the loss. Tempted to put on the higher output pulleys etc. :shrug:

    magnaflow single muffler

    Just replaced my stock muffler with a single dual inlet/outlet magnaflow muffler. Also added a 2 1/2 " crossover pipe just ahead of the muffler and just behind the o2 sensor. I expected it to increase my exhaust sound and add a little power. To my surprise it actually quieted down my L a bit but...
