Supercharger Question..

Hey all,

My 2001 doesn't have Eaton, or Ford SVT written anywhere that I can see on the supercharger, and I've been noticing this on other L's.

Any idea why mine doesn't have it? Didn't do it that model year, or something?

My 02 HD screw didn't have anything written on the front of it either. Perhaps it is a ported core that someone installed prior to you purchasing the truck. Did you buy it recently?

after a quick , I found this post:


I just visited the Eaton plant in Athens,GA last month. They were very nice and even though tours are not done, they did take me in the plant for a look around. It was really cool and everything is clean, they have lots of clients for different size chargers. The M112 that is made for our Lightning's is their largest charger. I did ask about why some read SVT while others have Eaton. During the build process the templates are changed for Ford vehicles when requested. Thats what I understood that happens.

Thanks! I didn't know the 02's were grey. So I am wondering.....if he has an 02 Harley blower or atleast snout.....then wouldn't his truck have the larger upper pulley>??? -Mat-

EDIT! Now, this had me thinking, if his truck did have an 02 Harley blower or snout....and had the larger upper pulley that could explain his poor ET's and MPH's. Maybe I am wrong.....but maybe I am right.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner. I was out watching my first 'drift session.' That was actually pretty cool... After a while though, it turned into me wanting to see them crash. And oh boy, did they. Multiple times.

I'll take pictures of it tomorrow, but I don't have a camera so I'll have to get them developed, then scan 'em in. But I should have them by tomorrow night...

I bought the truck in September of '03...

EDIT: I just went out with a flashlight to take pictures, and know what I noticed? Someone had actually filed off what looks like 'Ford SVT' on it. It's barely noticeable, which is why I never even saw it until I sprayed the engine bay down and washed it off just now.

I cannot imagine why anyone would have filed it off.
