What's in the box??
Lingenfelter has an interesting back story. John Lingenfelter started it, and after he passed away in a racing accident, the business floundered, John’s cousin Ken Lingenfelter bought it and its doing ok but not great.
Ken barely knew John.
I have met Ken a few times and one hell of a guy. Has one of the top 4 car collections in the world and uses it to make money for mostly charities. You can only see the cars one of two ways. Get invited by Ken or get invited to a charity event.
Made his fortune in real estate and not the car business.
Lingenfelter performance and Ken’s collection are separate entities.

I believe I’ve mentioned this here before but since it came up...
Back in 2006 I was just out of college (NCSU) and working as a tech at a local late model GM dyno shop and was handed the keys to 2001 Lingenfelter 427 TT vette making around 850rwhp (after I replaced some turbo oil lines, diagnosed/fixed a couple boost leaks, some general maintenance and the boss tuned it).
That thing was naughty!!! I was very impressed by how well the c5 platform handled that kind of power.
