I'm sure everyone will post thier "want" list.

But I'm in the market for a shortblock or heads and cams.
A nice ported head with 8 thread spark plug holes would be real nice.


How about some holiday price breaks? 'tis the season'

Attention Lightning Owners: Re: X-Mas special- Quit being cheap and finding ways to ask vendors to lowball their already ridiculously cheap pricing to fit your frugal needs. Get a bank account and grow it.

We don't drive honda's where all the mods are $10.
Being a limited production truck, parts are expensive. This is a great way to put some money in the vendors pockets, and mods on my truck.

Pinch a penny, save a penny, then invest it and make a dime.

I've seen the Vendor's Xmas specials. But I'd like to see some other entry-level specials too, which are missing. How about throttle bodies, plenums, elbows, Xcal2's, blower porting, etc.? I'd buy all of these RIGHT NOW.

Exactly but how do you expect the vendors to come out with new items if they can not make the same dime?It is a 2 way street.Do you give your boss a break on how much you get paid.Seems a little one sided to me.Stan

The same way WALMART does it. Sell more at a lower price.
