Question Calling LightningJeff

Jeff,
I saw that you have the jdm long tube headers and exhaust. Can you tell me about them and whats involved ie...$. I have gone with all JDM parts so far. Shawn at JDM said that my bassani headers aren't worth much performancewise and that they have picked up as much as 50 hp w/ their set up. Throwing away my Bassani headers is not a problem since they were on the truck when I bought it.

Cool

I have gone for a ride in Jeff's truck and all I can say is WOW
His truck really screams......he punched it from a 20 roll and there were 40 yards of tracks behind us Granted he has a 4# lower, filter kit...yada yada yada. But this was also on a new 2001 engine with only 1500mi on it!!!
Oh ya back to the exhaust.......it sounds great. He has the Magnaflow system after the long tubes and sounds mellow at idle and like an uncaged animal at WOT

His ghost flames are also friggin' sweet

He can fill you in on the costs.

Joe,
thanks for the input. Looks like you have a sweet ride yourself. Tell me about your fog light mod, I have a 99 with 01 lighting and can not figure an easy way to mount the fog lamps. 99 and 01 are completly different. Look forward to hearing from you and Jeff.

Thanks for the kind words Joe. Gotta love the long tubeheaders. I think I paid $1700 for the Longtubes, stainless high flow cats, stainless magnaflow, all the pipes in between. I had it installed a JDM. I let the pros do it. You can always sell your shorty headers.

My "foglight mod" just means I changed it so the fog lights come on whenever I want (i.e. with parking lights, and autolamps) I did not change the foglights......well other than the bulbs......those I changed to super whites.

super white bulbs......http://www.f150online.com/cgi-bin/f150store.cgi?CONFIG=f150store&CHANGE=YES&NEXTPAGE =bulbs.html&CODE=198

BTW---thanks for the words about my truck....I am doing ALOT of work on it this winter while stored and hopefully I will be able to compete with some of these guys!!!
