Please Help. 04 Lightning supercharger on 06 F150
I am attempting to install a SVT charger off a 04' 2 valve 5.4 Lightning on my 2006 3 valve f150.
1. Will the intake manifolds bolt up from the 04 Lightning to my 06'F150?
2. The lightning has a mechanical throttle body while my truck has a electronic one. How should I handle this?
Some body must have allready attemtped this .
Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated!!

They have attempted it and either A) Gave up because it isn't worth it, B) got a 3v specific blower for cheaper and easier, or C) Paid huge bucks to get stuff custom made and wish they hadn't spent too much time to make a one-off piece.
I vote get a cheap 3v intake blower from a member on here or ebay.

Hey Brandon,
welcome to the site.
I haven't heard of anyone making the Lightning 2V supercharger work on a 3V motor yet. And I'm a member on a lot of different Ford sites.
As far as finding a 3V kit on this site you'll need to look around.(I haven't seen one on here lately. There was a guy with a Saleen blower setup but I think he just sold it.
If you look in the classified adds you might get lucky ,and after you have 6 posts or so you can make a post in the WTB (want to buy )section in the classifieds.
There is plenty of new 3V kits out there.
A supporting vendor of this site has them.

Whipple also makes a kit.

Phil is correct guys, no way a 2 valve eaton set up is gonna be a direct bolt on without a lot of custom pieces, so in the long run it'll be cheaper and easier to get a 3 valve kit and upgrade it...
