ProCharger Intercooled Supercharger Kits for 97-03 Ford 5.4/4.6L

I have an '05 4.6. would this work with just simple modifications?

Oh crap,,that says 5.4.
Sorry,
I would call them if that's the blower your interested in and they could probably hook you up with brackets for the 4.6.

I think Tarajerame (respelled) said that a Positive displacment blower off of a 2 valve Mustang GT will bolt right up, but the air inlet is on the wrong side and a few other things will have to be dealt with.

it will physicly bolt to your engine

the intercooler mounting will be tricky and you will need to modify or make new intercooler tubing but it's not too bad if you're mechanicly inclined

I'm in the middle of a write up on how to install a '97-'03 4.6/5.4 procharger kit onto a NBS 2 valve 4.6 F-150

and yes 4.6 Punisher is right a positive displacement supercahrger offf of a 2 valve mustang will bolt onto your truck as well and there a couple guys who have done so, they just don't frequent the forums much

why would the intercooler mounting be tricky? i understand the tubing and the air intake. which positive displacement supercharger for a 2v would yall recommend? from what i've read kenne bell blowers have ridiculous power, but are not the most reliable and pro chargers make a lot of power and are reliable. is this somewhat correct?

o and phil, your screw is the ***** as far as power is concerned

the top side is the easy side as the engine is the same and all

it's the front end on the NBS trucks that makes the intercooler a bit different to avoid blocking the oil, powersteering and trans coolers

from what I've seen when people push any blower/turbo past it's efficiency range is when it becomes un-reliable and breaks



my vote is for the KB but I have had no experience with them
