It's a 2002 True Blue Lightning. The truck has just over 83,000 miles and the new built motor has @ 3,000 miles on it. I have a list of the things that have been done to it and I'm sure something has been left out. The truck has 7 passes on the new motor, 4 on low boost (14lbs, 93 octane and street tune) and 3 on the race setup (18-19lbs, C-16 fuel). It ran 7.32@93 on the street setup and 6.91@101+ on the race setup. All of these passes were on Mike's 30" M/T drag radials and are in the video section. Dyno #'s are 593hp/613tq street tune, and 649hp/701tq race.

The motor was built, setup and tuned by Arthur Todd, owner of AVT Performance in Conway, SC.

Additional mods are:
Heads - Done by JLP Performance - everything new
Comp Cams Stage 2 cams, degreed in by AVT
Ported lower intake
Kenne Bell 2.3 Supercharger w/ JLP Sheetmetal Plenum
JDM 108mm Intake tube
SCT2400 Mass Air
Accufab Single Blade Throttle Body
Metco Aux Idler Pullies 90mm street / 100mm Race
EGR Delete
Walbro 255 fuel pumps
Upgraded, larger fuel line from tank to fuel rails
60lb injectors
Custom ss braided fuel pumpout line w/AN fittings
JDM electric fan kit w/170* t-stat
Navigator water pump
Manual Intercooler Pump Switch for track use
AVT Oil Seperator System
JDM Heat Exchanger
Kooks long tube headers
JDM catless midpipe w/ Vercious resonators
JDM Silver Bullet Catback
Strange Adjustable rear shocks
QA1 Adjustable front shocks
JDM front drag springs
Calipers modified to fit 15" wheels
Tranny:
PI 2400 stall
4x4 larger pan
JDM line mod valve
I have a brand new trans cooler - not installed
Dual guage pod with Autometer Boost and Wideband A/F
Seat Covers - Wet Okele with "Lightning" stitched in backrests
Relocated Cruise Control and fuse box for better access

The paint on the truck is in great shape. The front bumper and hood have been repainted to eliminate rock chips and the grills on the truck were color matched to the truck. The Lightning badges have been acetoned to all chrome. I have a pair of Hoosier QT Pro, 28x10x16 tires on M/T Baja? wheels that have plenty of passes left. I also have a fiberglass bed cover that goes with it as well. I still have many of the stock parts that came off of the truck that go as well.

Most people on here know the truck. PM me with any questions and a way to contact you and I'll call you back.
Edit: Make an offer, it's time to move the truck.

If anyone here is interested in the truck, make me a reasonable offer. I'd rather it stay local. I will post it on the national Lightning boards in a few days.

I attached a couple of the videos.
7.32 @ 93, 93 octane, boost-14lbs

Price lowered.
$21,000. If anyone you know is looking for a truck like this, it cannot be duplicated for anywhere near this price.

I guess. Funny how she cried when the new owner drove away, and she didn't even like the truck.

The truck went to Hampton, Virginia. The new owner is a great guy who just sold his 11 second 03' Cobra. He said he wanted to go faster. haha

I won't start anything for a while, but won't take the same path as the truck. Someone else is going to have to take that big, uhh, HUGE loss.
