Thumbs up Johnny Lightning Performance

I recently installed a JL superchip, ram air kit, and shift kit in my 2000 Lightning. Awesome change in my trucks attitude. I mean this thing now runs like a raped ape!!! There is a Z-28 at my work that use to take me fairly easily. I would get him on the start and then he would just take off. Now he cant even compete with me. I am not exagerating. These 3 things have unleashed some serious horsepower! If your a motorhead like me its well worth the money. I cant wait to get the lower pulley thats coming out. Also, JL is about to finish the new JL powercooler, another must for the love of my life. For those of you that are buying this stuff, hold on and enjoy!!!

Question

How the hell do you get ahold of those people? I want a throttle body and crank pulley. I e-mailed them, but no response.

alphadoggy,

Who did you e-mail? JL, JDM or both? If you e-mailed JL, maybe he has something going on, because I e-mailed him last night and he hasn't responded yet. Maybe something personal is going on right now, because he is very good about responding to questions. Sometimes, within minutes.

I emailed JL last night and got a response last night. Johnny's always been on the ball with me. Very prompt.

hells bells, I just clicked on a e-mail link on SVT performance, and it evidently got sent to jdamore58@home.com, whoever he may be. I will forward my inquiry to Johnny Lightning.

Well, crapola, my e-mail to Jim D'Amore came back undeliverable, so I mailed Johnny Lightning and that came back undeliverable, too. I guess I am just stuck with a piece of crap 13 second truck.
