I'm selling my setup, only thing I did not opt for was the L-wire harness which is not a big deal or needed anyways with the stock ECU. I posted it for sale here and on NHTOC, soon to hit ebay. I have researched and read...ALOT and this is the way to go if you want to most power potential and the best looks. I just have too many projects right now so I am going to look at getting a used centrifugal or something I think.

o5 Harley,
You need to start with assembly called out in Phils post, if not you are asking for a lot of work. Installation is not that hard once you have all the parts and Ford did a lot of changes to pur supercharger on truck. Not sure anyone has a "complete" list because it depends on how factory you want to make it. Even if when (not if) you get the ebay listing, the big items you will need will be MAF (90mm), airbox, fan shroud (can modify), fan spacer or Cobra water pump, upper pulley support and pulleys, alternator, 250lph fuel pump, lower blower pulley (go aftermarket and larger), heat exchanger and brackets for frame mount, IC water pump (new), IC coolant tank, IC hoses (expensive), upper radiator hose, forward heater hose (now rear hose), software tune. Thats most of it and again a lot of this can be had on NLOC and NHTOC forums!! Going to MAD can be one stop shopping. I have mor einfo if you PM me. You will not be sorry and OBTW this is my daily driver and its relaible and dependable and I tow occasionally.
OBTW if you go with ebay set up it has the L/HD intake wiring which plugs right into firewall connecto. NO NEED to go with L/HD vehicle harness. Stock PCM with new software is all you need.
