*UPDATE* Payment sent and they are boxing it up!!!

Thanks Crash! It appears they have accepted my offer. It's going on my '07 F-150 so I don't think there will be any problems...

Looks like I will have a Vortech kit up forsale soon!

Ha. Glad you snapped that up fella. Maybe I will contact the seller for a 5% referral fee.

It will bolt upto any 5.4 3v regardless, making it work is the other issue.

Very good deal! Congratulations!

I do highly recommend you order the full bolt kit direct from whipple for your install. Its not expensive, maybe around $45?.. The piece of mind from having fresh bolts will save a lot of time and headaches when your ready to bolt the kit in.. When I bought mine I was missing a few bolts, and the some of the bolts that came with the kit were just wrong or beat.. I also bought ARP bolts for the blower to manifold connection.. I've got a thread on the "other forum" that details my build, and has plenty of pictures of the "upgrading" I did before and after the install..

As I've stated in the past the kit will fit the 09 and 10 trucks with no issue. Whipple does not support the tuning so they do not list the kit for 09-10. Same goes for the F250 equipped with the 5.4 3V. Doesn't really matter though as Radelow has neither so why this even came up is beyond me. The guy selling it was the one with the F-250. Secondly it doesn't matter if the manufacture offers a tune or not. Blower tunes suck from every manufacture. If you're adding a super charger go ahead and have a real custom tune made so you can truly enjoy the money you just spent.

The chrome kit needs a CAI and maybe the drive belt idlers.

The black kit looks complete kinda. It comes with some Bounus items but is more expensive.

IDE email them for an part inventory if I was interested.
