Wife and I purchased a 2023 ST Carbonized Grey. We’ve always wanted one since reading about them in 2019. With 4 kids we required a bigger vehicle for travel soccer. Oldest is about to be 17 and rarely see him since he drives so the timing seemed appropriate.

My lighting had intake, exhaust #4 lower pulley and custom tune. It was pretty quick.

The Lightning I bought new in 2004. Bought a pulley, intake, and tune kit. Then it went downhill fast! Built shortblock, heads done by Precision, Crower stage2’s, Kenne Bell blower painted DSG with sheet metal Plenum, Cannon full 3in with LTs by Stainless Works, and on… Love that little farm truck.

I used to post on lightningrodder and a few other sites under the same name. I haven’t posted in any of them in years.
