OK guys im looking to get another SC or XR7..but prolly a super coupe. I have missed mine ever since i had to sell it back in 99 after having it only 8 months. It was a bone stck 90 auto..silver with charcol cloth..JBL system and Sunroof..the kick was it had 2 owners and 36k org miles when i got it..everything was org. on it and it was spotless. Well since i have to sell my lightning im considering another SC. But since i neevr got to mod mine i have some questions. The rear halfshafts...what are the stock ones good to power and et wise. What gears coem in them stock..3.08's? I see lots of guys going to 3.27's....why not 3.73's or 4.10's? and do normal 8.8 gear sets work in them? Also what years are affected by the head gasket problem?
I do remember the stock HEATon was just that..a heating monster...my m112 on the lightning is bad enough....what do you do to compete that without buying a 1500 buck Spearco? Anyone made a good sounding exhaust for these yet...and im not doing flows...lol...anyone try Spintech mufflers? And does it still stand that if you remove the resonator these tings get nasty sounding...in a bad way?
The shocks....if you have the electronicly adjustable suspension....are the electronics ont he shock....or can you use any shock to repalce them. I know this is a lot to take in...but i just wanna know what im getting myself into. I did 4 months of research before i got my lightning lol.
Thanks, Vince
