remember you can use the lightning heat exchanger, brackets and I/C pump and they will bolt directly in your truck with some new brackets, the roush stuff will also work as a direct bolt in

It will work for your truck and it will be awesome! I emailed the guy at the web site and he said more than just mustang guys are buying these supercharger manifolds because no one is really building a m112 4.6l supercharger kit but thats a different story. it will take lots of time hunting down parts because this site dosent sell everything. so you will have to read up allot on supercharger builds to find out every little thing you would need but to start you off in the right direction you would need

99-04 GT Supercharger-less Kit Using a '03/04 Cobra Blower
Your Price: $1,899.99

Spacers To Adapt The TTI Lower Manifold To A 5.4L Engine (Pair)
Your Price: $195.99

3-Valve Side Manifolds To Convert a 2-Valve Lower Manifold (Pair)
Your Price: $345.99
These parts will start you off with the lower manifold you would then need to buy a supercharger i would suggest finding a low mile lightning m112 eaton that would bolt right up to this set up and use the lightning throttle body and neck that will also bolt right up to your m112 so you would have a cobra supercharger set up with the lightning intake so you wouldnt even have to worry about the rest of the mustang kit and re routing the intake ect. your biggest difficulty would be finding a correct size belt because this is a one off custom s/c build up.

then there is a long list of other parts depending on what horse power range your looking for most people around here stick with a 42# injector and 90 mill maf, larger fuel pump with custom tunes.I went with Troyer

you would need a intercooler, elct water pump, coolant tank, ect that you can get cheap used from people that have upgraded to aftermarket parts and sell then on ebay or this forum also look in the cobra and lightning forums for any ods and ends "IE" lightning coolant tank for intercooler. I just picked one up for 20 bucks on ebay.

I think it would be very possible to put a sweet kit together for you and fairly cheep if you play your cards rite.

That is a good deal for a supercharger, would be nice if they could put the intake on the other side for F150. Might be almost as much as a L swap and get the advantage of rear feed blower and the posible upgrade to the TVS. Unless that other guy gets those adaptor plates done.

Thats why i suggested buying that manifold and bolting a L blower on it to keep it more practicle and easyier to install. utilizing as many L parts as possible.
