5.4 dohc sc

Hi guys I need some, does any knows if I can put the stock supercharger from a 02 f150 Harley Davidson and put in a Lincoln engine. I want to swap mine with the 5.4 dohc and put the supercharger to have the stock look but with more hp. Or if someone a make some type of plates to sit the supercharger on the 4valve engine. Thanks

It can be done but it's not as easy as many people think because the timing covers and accessory drive is all different and then you also have to deal with the intercooler and plumbing for that.

easiest way, spend alot of money having a one off sheet metal intake made(local fab guy is working on a H122 setup like this as we speak, no word on production date though)

or spend a lot of money to have someone modify a cobra lower intake and a lightning midplate and tensioner bridge to find out that you can max out the M112 and start losing boost at 4200rpms and then upgrade to a bigger blower



fell free to reinvent the wheel though, I assure you that you're not the first and won't be the last one who doesn't bother reading all the "how to" threads on the Lightning Forums


you're still stuck with crappy rods and the same power limit until you go built, and change the rods and pistons


and YES, this is coming froma guy with a DOHC 5.4 based motor in his Lightning

I am planning on upgrading the rods and pistons, just trying to figure out if it will be too much try to get adapter plates for my supercharger since I already have it or if will be better to go in a different route. But I want to stay with the same look that Ford gave to Harley Davidson with the supercharger. Thanks for everyone's feed back if anyone has any idea how to make it work will be appreciated.

I have one and plan to run a Turbo setup in a '66 Falcon. I looked for supercharger setups and found nothing. Do you have pics of the intercooled setup from your fabricator?

just my opinion so dont slam me, if you think or know different, let me know

the stock 2v heads are terrible
flow about 170/142 @ .500" of lift

3 v heads, much improved
flow about 220/165 @ .500" of lift

and 4v flow about 245/170 @ .500" lift.

all gather from stan weiss head flow website.

another option is the trick flow 2v head that flows about 233/175 @.500 lift.

once ported the 4v are stout. but would a swap to the trick flow heads keep it simple and offer a nice increase?

also wonder why no one goes to the 3v head, nice increase and i would think more intake options.

if you look at the head flow of new 5.0, gm lt or ls heads or the new dodge hemi, you realize just how terrible the 2v is.

love the look of the 4v head, the 2001 cobra R motor is still one of the best looking engines, IMO. just realize a new 5.0 makes more power.

The 3v head is quite a bit different then 2v mainly due to VCT. Now if you lock the phaser it maybe ok but 2v 4v are easy swaps from a computer standpoint. I guess if youre going to spend the money to go 3v you can get 4v for the same price with more potential

a whipple with ported 2v heads should be able to satisy most people.

if you need more than that, i would first tell you that a stock lightning s/c is not going to get you there.

i love talking about things like this but i would guess you can count on your hands how many people have swapped a 2v out for a 4v with a supercharger in a truck application. potential is great, probability and money is really the issue.

if op had a stinking fast truck with all bolt ons and parts and was clipping low 12's high 11's in a h/d, then i would think, ok next level.

I agree, a twin screw feeding a two valve 5.4 can and does satisfy most people


I am still in certain why so many people think the dohc 5.4 is the way to go and then they complain that two valve intakes don't interchange


while I have a dohc 5.4 based motor in my truck, I have two others that are simply bolt on two valve 5.4's


and what's sad, my dohc powered truck, is currently the slowest of the three



so people can take what I say and use it or they can leave it, doesn't matter much to me either way...
