Chip and Filter... $498
2 Stickers... $21
Muth Mirrors... $199
Clear Corners... $59
Super White Bulbs..$120
The look on that LS1 owners face as a ford truck kicked his *** in a 1/4 mile.. PRICELESS!!!!!!!



------------------
* 99.5 Black Lightning
* Personal Best ¼ Mile 13.99 @ 97.75 Mph. (Bone stock, ready to run low 13’s now)
* Ohio Plate SVT2GO
* Sal’s Chip and Filter
* Interceptor Trans
* All three Factory options for 99
* Factory CD Changer
* Class 3 Towing Hitch
* Factory Tonneau Cover
* 8" Bazooka Tubs
* Kenwood 80 watt *2 amp
* Viper 550 Alarm w/ remote start
* Often found in the bed: 98 Yamaha Banshee/Pro Design Cool head/ Toomey T-5 Chrome Racing Pipes/ Wiseco Power Pistons / Boyesen rad valves

Injection is nice, but I'd rather be blown. 99 Lightning, the best of both worlds!

A good rule of thumb

If the L cost $30k, I have till that amount in mods to go. At least thats what I try to tell the wife
If she reads this, I know I'll be sleep'n with the dog's tonight.

JBA headers, Airaid filter, Borla catback, Superchip with RPM code, Snuglid, Bedrug, PIAA Platinum headlamps, PIAA runninglights, Waterwetter, Cabin airfilter, Tinted rear window, 4x4 tranny pan and filter, hood insulator. All this comes to about $3,000. The sound system is next and I expect that will run about $1500.
