    2001 Silver Lightning Low Miles, Clean, Built Shortblock

    I have a 2001 Silver Lightning with just under 36,000 miles that I am putting up for sale. I'm asking $13500 OBO. My wife and I recently had our first child and it just hasn't been getting driven much in the past couple years. We are moving soon and could use the extra money so I am listing it...

    Burning or losing oil..........

    Hey guys, looks like my truck has burnt and/or lost a total of about 2 qts over the last 3000 miles. I put a quart in it at about 1500miles when I noticed it was a little low, I just finished changing the oil and only 4.5 qts came out (I'm sure a little more was stuck in the filter but not...

    I may have found my problem, need some help!

    Hey guys, I think I may have discovered a vacuum leak on my truck. There is a valve of some sort that is bolted to the firewall on the driver's side. It has one large vacuum line running to it from the upper intake, one line the runs back to the fuel tank and a port on the bottom for another...

    Stumbles badly under part throttle, need help

    I'm finally getting the truck all fixed and running right, but I still have one major issue with it. The truck stumbles and sputters horribly under part throttle. If I give it light throttle, it does fine, and at WOT it runs great, it's the range in the middle. And trust me, it isn't fun driving...

    '02 Lightning PCM

    I bought it thinking my '01 computer had a short in it. Turned out I just had a bad sensor :rolleyes:, so anyway I don't need it anymore. If anyone wants it just make me an offer, I'd just like to get back part of what I paid for it.

    Has anyone else noticed......?

    In the factory headlights, "SVT" is written on the reflector that covers the bulbs. I was sitting in front of the truck today and just happened to look and see it. Just thought it was interesting, I was curious how many other people have or haven't noticed. Nice little detail from the SVT team!

    Really need some input, unusual datalogging issue

    Alright guys, I thought I finally got my crazy high IAT2 temp readings fixed. I took it to Ford and had their tech run a diagnostic on it. We ended up putting in a new IAT2 sensor, and I watched the computer as the tech installed it and saw the IAT2 temps change to the correct readings. However...

    Best mod I've made so far: Video Inside

    Hey guys, got the Bassani catback installed this past weekend. I finally got around to making a short idle and rev video tonight. Ignore the high idle, I'm trying to figure that out, you can hear how it SHOULD idle right after I blip the throttle a little bit. This thing had some horrible...

    Need quick help, truck won't start

    Hey guys, I just made a 2 hour trip down to my parent's house for the weekend and now that I got here, I can't get the truck to start back up. It ran great all the way here, no problems at all, now it just turns over and over but won't start.....Any suggestions?

    More Troubleshooting, please give me some advice

    I have my truck up and running again, but it isn't running any better. I took it apart to fix a coolant leak (hardline coming out of lower intake) and in the process, decided to replace the lower intake to head gaskets and one new plug. Now that it is running again, it is no better than before...

    Finally, it's alive again!!

    I'm happy to say I finally got her back up and running tonight. I've had a shop screwing around with my lower intake for about a month and a week but they were finally able to get it repaired and sent back to me. I only got to start it up and let it idle for a minute or so since it was pretty...

    Those with Bassani, please post up installed pics

    I just got my Bassani cat-back and started with installing it. I bought it used so I have no instructions and/or pictures to look at. Can someone just post up a few pics of the system installed (from the bottom, maybe even on a lift if you have some?). I'm going to have to cut the factory...

    Guys, I'm steaming right now, what should I do?

    Ok, so I was trying to do part of the coolant crossover mod where you remove the factory hardline and drill out/thread the existing hole for a 1/2" pipe fitting. I didn't have the tools to do it, so I took it to a performance shop to have them do it. I specifically said, and even typed up on...
