Built Motor Project, What Else Do I Need?

Hey Guys,

I recently bought another lightning in hopes of a REALLY sweet build-up but am not too shabby in the realm of built Lightnings.

So I've already got ...a built motor from VT, KB, transmission from Factory Tech.

What else do I need to buy?, specifically the brand...traction bars?, fans?, better slicks?, spark booster?, anything ya'll think I should buy please share.


Thanks,
Tony

Not too sure what your budget is... But maybe a 4 link rear suspension?

Sounds like your gonna be into some quick ETs.. how about a roll bar?

for the T-bars I have heard nothing but good things about JLP and JDM ones. My buddy SVTpete has the JLP ones on his 02 and they work really well and look spiffy too.
