Heres the starter plenum for all the haters. It was black hot coated, and had to be worked on again to tap for the brake booster. This is the only piece thats not going to be on the final kit.

Heres the mock up exhaust before I put a tip on it. Still looking for ideas on the tip.

After the Hotchkis lowering kit. I think it squats in the back. I left the long Chevy lowering shackles on the back, I may have to adjust this some more.

Have you fired it up yet? Are you doing all the fab work yourself?

My hats off to you and others that are trying to, "Go where no man has gone before", with the Lightnings.

I am waiting to see a complete kit that is ready to be bolted on.

I started it and drove it for about 45 mins sat night. The only tune I had that it would run on is the stock one. Found out Sun morning that I fouled all 8 plugs with that tune. LEsson learned.

This kit is going to be a complete bolt on kit, its got a few bugs to be worked out, but its going to be a turn key system.
