TEAM SWANSON
2001 lightning(stock block)
529 r.w.h.(sae)
703 r.w.t.
1/4 11.9 @ 114
1/8 7.5 @ 93
all this on the stock 4 cats right? ..carlsbad is near San Diego California, and I"m in Central Ca. so I'm assuming we have the same cat setup?? All I can say is I'll leave the exhaust alone then, and spend my money elsewhere!! Thanks! BK

ruslow makes a set which includes the waterpump and p/s pump. you don't want to slow down the alternator and the a/c compressor just freewheels when off.

what a coincidence...I just had the same discussion with a buddy of mine 2 days ago.
I was very happy with the results of ASP 25%UD for my wife's 'stang (V6) and am planning to do something similar for my '01 HD F150.

But have never seen anything pitched for s/c Ls and HDs???
