3" body lift
3" suspension lift
New oil pan
Overhaul
New panels to remove rust
And a new 18 gallon gas tank mines rusted out on the top.

first off, did you do a MAF conversion? if not, all the intake goodies would be pointless.. the electric superchargers are crap... they have plastic blades which would really screw you up if one broke. those rims are 4 lug, not 5 lug from what i saw. the rest of the aesthetics and such i say to each his own. just my opinion.

go for a drop in KN filter in the stock air box, or a real COLD air intake with a MAF.... don't bean out the headlights and taillights either..save your money. No throttle body spacer. Get a hotter coil, low resistance plug wires, brass cap/rotor, cheapie copper core plugs and stretch the gap and timing a bit to get some more spark and a cleaner, fuller burn. then headers and exhaust to help her breathe.

I understand your dying need for mods...but some of these are just a solid NO.

electric supercharger-no
lenses-cheaper on Ebay
headers-yes
Gibson exhaust-yes
supercharged emblem-no
NOS-not without a onboard control module
chip-rather see the above used for more daily tuning
air ride-Only if you tow. if you want it to drop, run the bags with a 4-linked rear.
intake-that intake requires you to relocate the battery to the inside of your cab.

All-in-all...I'd say spend a little more time searching for the PERFECT mods, and don't settle for anything less than what you LOVE!...anything less would be a waist of your $$$$!

and looking at that N2O kit, it's a 250 shot, unless you rebuilt that engine to handle that, you're going to blow it up.

Thanks guys, this was just quickly done as a message to my friend, and above the nos i put it in there as a joke but i forgot to take it out. I would like to upgrade the air intake, because the stock isn't the best and i would like my engine to run cleaner, with more hp also. the exhaust system would be nice. i really like the front headlights, but the tail lights are ok to go with the front. the ones i have are faded. i probibly not get the rims, because i like the ones i have now. i'm going with the black silver and blue color theme. I'm also rebuilding my truck. i'm in high school so i'm doing it before i need to pay for rent or house loans, and all that other crap that stops you from doing that.=D

Default 1987-96 F-150 Euro Tail Light Lens

Tail lights - Look at an LMC catalog,
they list three different Euro-style taillights.

Chrome (Cheap looking)
Carbon Fiber (Gray)
Black

The Euro Tail Light Lens Set on my 1987 are Black.

The others are right about being cheaper on eBay though,
I purchased my set four years ago on eBay for $50.00
(Shipping not including)

I had just installed brand new OEM tail lights on my truck,
when I found & purchased the Euro Carbon Fiber tail lights,
I installed them and then found and ordered the Euro Black tail lights
that I have now.

I sold the "new" OEM tail lights and the Carbon Fiber (Gray) tail lights
on eBay later on.



Just my 2-cents...
