where to buy Lightning Swap Stuff
So Where does everyone look for Lightning stuff to make a 5.4 2v into a lightning swap? I was thinking about doing the STS turbo, But i love Supercharge sound. Plus i have 26k on my 02. I need to drive it more. I have some money saved up. I really want to do it as a winter project.

You could take the parts off of this one.

Or,,,you could go with a complete motor swap!

Looks like ebay may be a good deal. This stuff could go for as high as say $2500 depending on condition of parts. Also, MAD Enterprises and of course the NLOC and NHTOC forums, Lightning and Harley Davidson.

Once you get blown, you'll never go back.

You might as well buy a full Lightning motor, and have it built up. After a week of pushing stock boost and power youll start throwing mods at it, as you up the power youll be happy you already have the motor built and wont have to pull it.

If it were me I would go for 700WHP but thats me =)
