Just for reference, I saw a complete Lightning engine for sale at the Columbus, Ohio Spring swap meet last weekend for $3900.

Yes you need the computer and harness. I believe you also need the transmission, but I might be wrong.

you're looking at wround $6k for the complete setup if I remember right. Some guys in the Lightning forum bought extra powertrains for their project vehicles. Downs Ford. Not bad when an installed supercharger costs $3500.
